553 Book(s) Related to inadequate heir

I sold my virginity and my womb to save my sister. But the billionaire who bought me plays by darker rules than I ever imagined.

My sister’s heart is failing. The medical bills are a death sentence. So I do the unthinkable: I auction myself to the highest bidder. Ten million dollars for one son. No love. No future. Just a contract.

Ethan Hopper is a cold, powerful god in a bespoke suit. He doesn’t want a wife. He needs an heir—within ten months—or he loses his billion-dollar empire. And I’m nothing but a clinical transaction to him.

But his manor is a gilded cage of monsters. By day I play the blushing bride to keep my sister alive. By night I’m hunted by his vengeful ex-fiancée and a brother-in-law who smells my secrets. Then the ultimate betrayal shatters everything.

In a haze of wine and vengeance, Ethan’s predatory father, Richard, commits an act of unspeakable cruelty. When I finally see those two pink lines, my joy turns to gut-wrenching terror. I’m carrying the Hopper heir… but I don’t know if the child belongs to the cold husband I’ve begun to crave… or to his monstrous father.

Some bargains are written in ink.
The most dangerous ones are written in blood.

"I, Alpha Dante of the Crimson Fang Pack, reject you, Sera, as my mate and Luna."

He never knew those words would cost him everything.

Cast out and broken, Sera fled into exile and into a secret she swore to protect with her life. Three years later, she returns to the Continental Alpha Summit not as the Omega he discarded, but as the Twilight Sovereign, ruler of the Lunar Lycans and mother to a son Dante never knew existed.

Asher changes everything.

His existence shocks the Council, threatens the powerful, and makes him a target. When enemies Sera thought she understood begin moving against her son, she realizes the danger runs deeper than rivalry, someone has been pulling strings since before she was ever rejected.

Including Dante.

But the truth about that night is more complicated than betrayal, and the mate bond she has spent three years trying to destroy refuses to die. With assassins closing in, ancient prophecies awakening in her son's blood, and a war she can no longer avoid, Sera faces an impossible choice between the vengeance that kept her alive and the truth that could rebuild everything she lost.

The Council made one mistake. They let her survive.

Scarlett Scott belongs to a world where werewolves are only able to recognise their destined mate if they have shifted. But then, Scarlett is a wolf-less She-werewolf. But when Rush Rivera, her childhood crush and the Alpha King heir decided to choose her as his mate and future Luna, Scarlett was thrown into a dilemma as the Rogue Lycan Alpha also claimed her as his mate.

Scarlett is tornbetween her loyalty to Rush and her undeniable mate bond with the Rogue who had murdered her parents. With the heat season approaching, the Alpha King with a secret to protect and the Rogue Lycan Alpha out for revenge, Scarlett must decide where her loyalty lies and choose between love and vengeance.

Reborn: My Father Forced Me to Marry the Alpha's Crippled Son in Place of My Sister.

In this new life, gone are my days of scheming for things that were never mine. I agreed joyfully.

The Alpha's crippled son, a man I'd initially pitied, has turned my world upside down.

He showers me with affection. And then there are his siblings.

They trail after me like little ducklings, their eyes shining with adoration.

"Big Sister - in - Law, tell us that story again, the one about how you outsmarted those mean rogues!" he pleads, his voice filled with eagerness. A little girl, with pigtails bouncing as she jumps up and down, chimes in. "Yeah, please! And you were so brave, Big Sister - in - Law. I want to be just like you when I grow up!"

Even the older ones, who usually try to act all cool and aloof, can't hide their respect.

The eldest brother nods at me, a rare smile on his face. "You've changed this family, you know. We all look up to you now."

Who would have thought that a forced marriage could lead to a life so full of warmth, so overflowing with the kind of acceptance and adoration I'd only ever dreamed of?

Kruz has always been strong, disciplined, controlled, and unbreakable. Nothing prepares him for losing his mother… or what comes after.
Pulled into a hidden world he never knew existed, Kruz is forced to face the truth—he isn’t just different.
He’s a vampire.
The transformation is only the beginning. Thrust from a life of survival into one of power, wealth, and expectation, Kruz is given a position no one his age should hold: District Elder.
With it comes authority. Responsibility. And enemies he doesn’t yet understand.
And then there’s the bond.
Forced into a connection he didn’t choose, Kruz is tied to a girl—whether he wants it or not. She’s a complication. A problem. A constant reminder that his life is no longer his own.
Because the one person he wants… is the one he can’t have.
As pressure builds and danger closes in, Kruz is forced to walk a line few survive—between duty and desire, control and instinct, the life he had and the one being forced upon him.
Because in this world, power isn’t earned slowly.
It’s given.
And if you’re not ready for it—
It will destroy you.

Luna Elena Frost was never chosen, only assigned.
Bound to Alpha Alaric Ashbourne through a cold contractual marriage, she endures three years as a Luna in name only. He never comes home, never defends her, and never looks at her, while his heart belongs to another woman.
At his grandmother’s funeral, Alaric publicly dissolves their marriage, humiliating Elena before the entire pack. In that moment, she finally understands the truth. She was never wanted.
But the Moon has not abandoned her.
A forgotten night resurfaces. Her long-silent wolf begins to awaken. And secrets buried within her bloodline start to surface, drawing danger from every direction.
Cast out by the pack that once used her, Elena must flee, survive, and uncover her true power.
Only then does the Alpha realize his mistake.
By the time he turns back in regret, the Luna he rejected may already be gone forever.

"I, Alpha Devon..." he began, but I cut him off. The words I feared to hear was what he was about to say.
“You are only angry with your Bella right now, don’t say anything, we can sort this out tomorrow,” I pleaded with him. But he let out a loud hiss.
"I, Alpha Devon, reject Bella as my mate!" His voice was full of finality, leaving no room for negotiation. “Did you really think I could ever love an omega like you? It would be an insult to my position.” 
“Your time is up darling, Get out of my room!” He ordered.


Bella's life as an omega was the most perfect one ever. She was secretly dating the Alpha of her pack Alpha Devon and that brought pure joy to her heart.
Her joy knew no bounds when she found out her long time prayer had been accepted by the moon goddess, she was finally mated to the love of her life and he seemed happy and excited about it. But all hell breaks loose when Devon suddenly changes his attitude towards her the next day and rejects her without an explanation and throws her out of the pack with no reason.
Bella is left a heart broken with a lot of questions going through her mind: what suddenly went wrong? Why did Devon suddenly change? Did he even love her?
He rejected her, she returned with his heir, how will he chase her back?

"You think I’ll let Cassian take the fall ?"

"He’s my son. You? You’re just a face I regret making"!!.

Lucien was born with a secret.
One even he didn’t understand.
One his father always knew — and hated him for.
While his twin, Cassian, lived a life of freedom, Lucien lived locked behind doors, punished for simply existing.

He wasn’t allowed outside.
He wasn’t allowed to live.
He was hidden. Forgotten. Broken.

Until one party changed everything.

A mafia princess was hurt.
Cassian was to blame.
But their father made sure Lucien paid the price.

That night, Lucien was handed over to Zayn Kingsley —
A billionaire mafia heir.
One of the Eight who rule the city from the shadows.
He has two wives. A daughter. And a dying father whispering:

“Give me a son. A true heir. Or lose everything.”

Zayn doesn’t believe in weakness.
He doesn’t believe in love.
And he definitely doesn’t believe in men like Lucien.

Zayn is cold. Ruthless. Homophobic.

But what Zayn doesn’t know…
Is that Lucien carries more than pain.
He carries a secret that defies biology, logic, and everything Zayn thought he knew:

🩸 Lucien can bear an heir.

And what started as punishment becomes obsession.
What started as hate begins to burn into something forbidden… and terrifying.

Three years in federal prison didn't break Jason De'Leon. It built something worse.
The day he walked out, he expected heat, open sky, and his father waiting by the gate. What he got was a beat-up Chevy, a sister who couldn't look him in the eye, and a truth she had been burying for three years. His father was dead. The brake lines on his Harley had been cut clean through. And the man who did it was sitting at the head of the Iron Wolves table like he owned it.
Because now he did.
Victor Kane built his empire on a dead man's name, cartel money, and the silence of everyone too scared to speak. He has federal protection, he has enforcers, and he has Anna, the one thing Jason cannot walk away from.
Jason isn't walking away from anything.
He came out of that cage with nothing but a plastic bag and a grudge that has had three years to sharpen itself into something quiet and permanent and very, very patient. Victor Kane is about to find out that the man he helped put away is not the same man who just walked free.
Some debts get paid in blood.
Some wars start with a name whispered in a prison parking lot.
This one starts now.

Korvian Draethor had always been seen as the useless young master of the Draethor family — a constant source of shame and disgrace. Not only did his own family look down on him, but even his in-laws and outsiders treated him with open contempt and ridicule.

Little did they know, his apparent weakness, foolishness, and incompetence were nothing more than a carefully maintained act, endured for one single purpose.

Ding!

A translucent obsidian window materialized before his eyes.

[System Host has been found…]
[Requirement: Maintain a weak and useless image for 10 years — Completed]
[Congratulations! The Gods’ Blessing System has been activated!]

Power and divine light surged around him as several magnificent notifications appeared at once:

[The Goddess of Fortune invests in you: One Unlimited Void Card]

[The God of Time and Future blesses you with the ability: Foresee Potential Investments]

[The Goddess of Medicine grants you: A Pill That Can Cure All Illnesses]

[The Guarantors of Torture and Vengeance bestow upon you: The Ancient Books of Magical Martial Arts]

Korvian stared at the glowing rewards floating before him — the sleek black card pulsing with limitless wealth, the jade bottle containing miraculous pills, and the three ancient tomes radiating powerful martial energy.

A cold, terrifying smile slowly formed on his face.

Ten long years of humiliation.
Ten years of being trampled on by his father, his half-brother, his wife’s family, and the entire elite circle of Elyria.

All of it was finally over.

“Now…” Korvian whispered, his voice low and filled with bone-chilling killing intent,

“…it’s time for payback.”

He’s cold, ruthless, and obsessed with perfection. When their paths cross, Hunter finds Celine’s kindness and naivety infuriating—but he can’t ignore the pull he feels toward her, no matter how much he tries to deny it.

Can Celine break through Hunter’s walls, or will his past shatter their chance at happiness?

“Your legs are shaking baby girl and your breath is heavy. Is that fear i perceive or is it the burning lust you have for me?”

He pressed closer into me, my body sinking into the wall and he raised one of my legs around his torso.

“Your brother would probably kill me when he finds out what i am about to do but look me in the eye and admit that you have not longed for this too.”

Evelyn Peters life was termed perfect in her own at 21. Perfect fiance, a bright future,a best friend,a good paying job and the city life ready for her to explore.

But one phone call from her brother changes everything.

Lunch passed in a flash, and before I knew it, we were heading back to classes. Realizing I had forgotten a book in my locker, I hurried off to retrieve it. As I leaned against the locker beside mine, checking my schedule which was taped to the locker door, I felt warm breath brush against my cheek.

"Excuse me."

Startled, I jumped and, in my surprise, flung the heavy calculus textbook I was holding backward. A grunt followed, and I turned around to see the person behind me now doubled over, clutching a part of their face.

"Oh no! I am so, so sorry!" I exclaimed, mortified.

When he finally looked up, the first thing that caught my eye was his neatly styled dark hair, smooth and inviting. My gaze traveled down to his chiseled jawline and broad shoulders. Without realizing it, I was biting my lip as I took in the sight of this near-perfect figure. His muscles tensed as he moved his hand, revealing an amber eye that stared back at me.

It was him.

The most popular—and feared—guy in school.

And there I stood, having just clocked him with my calculus textbook.

I'm in so much trouble.

Will he be more than just a plus one?

"Babygirl?" I asked again confused. "I call my submissive my baby girl. That's a preference of mine. I like to be called Daddy." He said which instantly turned me on. What the hell is wrong with me? "


Iris was so excited to leave her small town home in Ohio to attend college in California. She wanted to work for a law firm one day, and now she was well on her way. The smell of the ocean air was a shock to her senses when she pulled up to Long beach, but everything was so bright and beautiful. The trees were different, the grass, the flowers, the sun, everything was different. The men were different here. Professor Ryker Lorcane was different. He was intelligent but dark. Strong but steady. Everything the boys back home were not.


I moaned loudly as he pulled out and pushed back in slowly each time going a little deeper. "You feel so good baby girl," he said as he slid back in. "Are you ready to be mine?" He said looking at me with those dark carnal eyes coming back into focus. I shook my head, yes, and he slammed into me hard. "Speak." He ordered. "Yes Daddy, I want to be yours," I said loudly this time.

She was his weakness. He was her nightmare.

"Baby, I've missed you so much,” he growled.

“Really? I'm not so sure” Taylor rubbing her body all over his, enjoying the warmth emanating from his body.

“Fuck, baby You're going to make me take you right here. We need to stop.”

“Whyy?” She whined, still touching him everywhere.

“You want me to take you here? Right in the open, with the possibility of people walking in on us?” He groaned in her ear.

“I'm not sure I hate that idea” she smirked.


Taylor was abandoned as an infant in the Bluemoon pack by her mother and she was turned into the pack maid, lower than the Omegas. But when she changed into her wolf, she actually was a remarkably strong breed. She decided to keep it hidden.
She found her mate was the Alpha's brother, and he was in a relationship with her bully, Megan. Instead of rejecting her, he decided to keep her as a means to bolster his strength. Taylor found a way to make the rejection happen, and she ran away.

Amidst her escape, a deadly disease ravaged the werewolf kingdom, born from the bite of feral wolves. This malady, immune to the healing properties of wolf blood, brought suffering and death without cure. Taylor's path collided with one of these feral wolves in the forest, a meeting she presumed would be her demise. Miraculously, her blood saved the feral wolf and she discovered he was her second chance mate.

They began to build their own pack in the unclaimed lands until they were attacked, and her mate finally remembered where he was from: He was an Alpha in a formerly strong kingdom, suffered by a covetous cousin who forced him to go feral so he can take over the kingdom.

Now, Taylor's destiny as the last Pure Blood Wolf emerges as the key to salvation for the werewolf kingdom. Will Taylor and her second-chance mate triumph over the darkness to restore their kingdom, or will their efforts unleash an even greater threat?

When Eliza takes a position as a healer in the Red Timber Wolves Pack, she has no idea that she is close to the man who once stole her heart. James, the devoted Alpha, is shocked to see Eliza, the simple country woman who broke his heart three years be-fore. James still loves her, and is shocked to discover that Eliza does not remember him, their engagement…or their passionate love affair.

“James just could not understand. She remembered everything of their story, of their short life together. Elizabeth remembered their meeting, she remembered everything he’d told her, she even remembered the name he’d given her to call him.

But why, when the first thing she had ever known about him was how he looked, could she not remember his face?

James thought of jealousy at the persona he had created in her mind, of the wolf that now had a life of its own and an identity different to him. A wolf that now commanded Elizabeth’s loyalty even after years of absence.

A wolf that, apparently, no longer looked like him.

James felt a rush of irrational jealousy for his past self, his self that could act without consequence, that could love his mate without fear.

James stopped Elizabeth’s path, turned her to him and pulled her into his arms, kissing her deeply.”

Her Forgotten Mate is created by Hannah Tatum Reading, an EGlobal Creative Publishing signed author.

Raina Winters, Alpha Kian Tara’s female Beta, is keeping a secret from her Alpha believing she would never be accepted by her Alpha as a desirable mate and suitable Luna. For years, she has watched her fated mate love another while she suffered in silence lingering too close to death until her Alpha and his childhood sweetheart break up, wanting to find his fated mate. Even after the break up, she still keeps her secret. Too afraid to believe he’d ever see her beyond his Beta, she keeps silent.

When the Elder Council puts pressure on Alpha Kian to produce a heir and to ultimately select his Luna, her Alpha and her twin sister offer a medical solution only to have it backfire when faced with the realities of archaic werewolf traditions. Now forced to choose a Luna, Alpha Kian reveals his one and only choice is his trusted Beta.

As hidden secrets surface, can they navigate through the chaos or will the fire of all these secrets consume them? Will they rise above to fight against the treachery and corruption that still stand in their way or will they only be a casualties in a war they never knew existed?

I was terrified all the time.

I couldn't go on like this. I was even afraid of my own shadow.

I heard a noise downstairs and I knew Allan was home. He was probably searching the cabinets for his stash of alcohol. He was more violent when he was drunk.

I heard my stomach grumbled again. I was really hungry, but I couldn't go downstairs, because he would see me and find a reason to hit me.

I really don't know why my mother had married him. What had she seen in him? I don't know why I ask that question, because I already knew the answer. He was rich and my mother needed the money.

Dad died when I was ten and we started to have money issues. My mother had to do something in order for us to get by, so a year later she married Allan. She didn't love him and I knew he didn't love her either.

As the youngest member of the wealthy Lustrelle family, Camille Rose Lustrelle enjoyed a lifestyle that most could only dream of. Glamorous parties, designer labels and sleek, fast cars were her everyday norm. Indulgence wasn’t just a luxury for her; it was her lifestyle. However, all good things must come to an end.

When her father, her closest ally, put his foot down and her brothers sided with her mother, Camille had no choice but to step up or lose it all. Being thrust into the family business was the last thing she ever wanted, but now it was a matter of do or die. The carefree days of leisure were gone, replaced by responsibilities and expectations in a world she wasn’t quite prepared for.

Holland W. Larson, Chief Human Resources Officer at Lustrelle Jewellers, had no time for nonsense, least of all from spoilt brats with no work ethic. Her icy demeanour kept everyone at a distance — a price she was willing to pay to maintain order and efficiency in her domain. Over the years, she had built a sterling reputation based on hard work and unrelenting discipline. She didn’t tolerate mistakes, nor did she have patience for rich kids playing office.

From their first meeting, it wasn't just sparks that flew; they set the air ablaze. Camille’s playful charm collided with Holland’s glacial demeanour, creating a storm of tempers and sharp words. Yet beneath the friction, there was something neither could deny: moments of raw intensity that left them both shaken and unsettled.

Their connection was undeniable, but love is never easy. With family pressures, personal insecurities, and old scars pulling them apart, they had to choose whether to stay safe in their separate worlds or risk everything to meet in the middle.

"I don't know why you hate me so much. I just know that you are my first and last love. You are just mine. You are my craziness, my stubbornness. And you know only that person seems beautiful to us who we love. And to me, only and only you seem beautiful because you are my love and you are just mine. You only belong to Shah Mir Malik...."

Shah Mir is the king of the mafia. He is known as a cruel, heartless, and arrogant man. His single death glare is enough to instil fear in the people around him.

Aleezay is a feisty, proud, and egoistic girl, who is the daughter of the lord of the king. She doesn't give a fuck to what others say or made her do it. She is the worst pampered and spoiled daughter of her father.

Ever since Shah Mir laid his eyes on Aleezay, he has been hell-bent on naming her to himself. But the haughty Aleezay isn't interested in him to accept him or his love.

How things will accelerate between both when they are poles apart from each other?

Join the spectacular voyage of Shah Mir and Aleezay to experience a boost of emotions that will make you grin in excitement and next moment pull out your hair in frustration.

Diane could not think straight watching the arrow approaching her mate from afar, she had not planned on dying when she stepped in to fight in the place of men, she had planned on gaining her position and if she couldn't she would get to understand why he delighted in bloodlust. She waited for the perfect time to cut in between the arrow and her mate where it would hit her vitally, she was done with life anyways, she had tried to claim it herself.

She turned to face her mate, he was preoccupied.

'There's no way he'll be fast enough this time' she smiled.

'Goodbye world, make space for me father, I'm coming to you, to join you, I have achieved nothing here but wasted years'
A lone tear rolled down her cheeks as she stepped in, the poison laced arrows pierced through her chest.

I possess ancient ice python blood and a fatal curse.

Every twenty years, I have to take an evil man’s heart to survive the brutal Crimson Molt, as good people’s hearts are poison to me.

Time is running out fast. I sense the dark side hidden beneath Julian’s gentle appearance and take him as my ideal prey.

I feign fragility to approach him, only to be abducted by his evil plot first.

He has no idea he is the one meant to save my freezing life.

I gave him my innocence. He gave me a public rejection.
I gave him my everything. He handed me rejection on a silver plate.

I thought I would be saved by Alpha Kael. I thought that this internal heat of ours meant we were fated. The morning after I gave myself to him, he didn't claim me—he broke me. "You are a traitor's daughter," he announced before the whole pack. "I reject you."

Shattered and humiliated, I fled. I welcomed death. But fate was cruel: I was pregnant.

Three years later, I had to go back to the place where I'd been broken. Not for love, not for revenge. My secret son is dying, and the only cure is in Kael's blood. I plan to steal it and disappear. But I underestimated the Alpha. He caught me in the dark. He locked the door. And this time he looks at me, not with hatred, but with hunger.

"You stole from me, Maya," he growls. "Now, you are mine."

— You are so warm and wet tesoro… I want to taste you— he whispers in her ear moving his finger in and out as she moans more and more, he finds a nice rhythm before incorporating a second finger, making her cry out even more.

He can't stop thinking what it will feel like to be inside her, she wraps his fingers so tightly it's almost torture. When Massimo arches his fingers a little, and kisses her on the neck, sucking hard, it's too much for Aurora, and she comes instantly with a seductive cry.

The Maledetto family has always been powerful and Dark Moon was the most important pack in the city. Their alphas appear to have it all, beauty, strength, power and… something special that cannot be identified. They are the sovereign kings where they step and everyone submits to them. Until tragedy strikes, his alpha takes a mated female werewolf from an enemy pack, the Kols, as his mate, his fated mate.

In revenge, the Kols set a trap for rogues to enter the Dark Moon pack, resulting in the death of the alpha and the new Luna. This tragedy makes a secret come to light: the Maledettos are cursed in the search for their mate, and they only bring misfortune.

His son Massimo, the heir alpha and his uncle Luca survive, and they will become known as the dark alphas. They will do everything to avoid the mate bond, and not trigger the curse. They will work hard to clear their family name, to grow the pack and their company again.

But… what happens when a simple little human gets in the way of Massimo and his resolve to not have a mate? Aurora is everything Massimo dreamed of and more. A simple human who is attached to him in more ways than he can imagine.

"Hunter let me go," I whimpered as he leaned in and took a whiff of my scent from my neck.

My mind and heart, none of it were willing to accept the closeness but my body was yearning to submit.

My nipples brushed against his solid naked chest and a zap of electricity attacked my core resulting in the moisture gathering in my sensitive folds.

He moved his hand and cupped my bottom, earning a gasp from me.

"This body of yours. IT'S. MINE." He growled.

"And I'll do anything to make sure that you get this in your head even if it means to get you on my bed and make you submit over and over again." And then he tore my panty with one pull.



When on Aria's Eighteen birthday her bully, Alpha Hunter Rodriguez, turned out to be her mate, she could not be more devastated. But destiny wanted something else and once the mysterious rouge attacks began, putting everyone's lives in danger. For the pack--Aria and Hunter had to work together to overcome the storm.

Where there was Hunter's realization of his mistakes, there was Aria's fight to resist the mate bond and her feelings.

But in this ever-growing fire and electric pull between them, there was someone who wanted to tear them apart and Aria became the main attraction of the one regulating the attacks. But they did not know that the unknown enemy they had to fight was sheltering under their own pack in disguise and after the pack, it was Aria who was at the main risk.

The real enemy only had one rule--Whether he'd claim or...he'd kill.

Can Hunter Rodriguez save his mate or it's going to be too late?

He towers over my small frame. His muscles bulge beneath the fabric of his clothes as he steps closer to me. I want to leave, but he won’t let me go. His hand wraps around my arm.

“You’re my mate.”

“Chosen mate.” I remind him. I’ve learned there’s a very distinct difference between the two. A fated mate connection, created by the moon goddess herself, is something so undeniable and pure.

Or so I’ve heard.

His loud growl emanates through the room and vibrates through my body when he pulls me toward him. His arms are like thick metal bars caging me in. His eyes swirl between light amber and black.

“I don’t care. You. Are. My. Mate.”

“But—“

He holds my chin between two fingers, forcing me to look up and effectively shutting me up.

“Are you not listening?”

——————
They want me to become the mate of their crown prince. Me, a mere human, mated to a ruthless monster!

We’ve been at war with the werewolves for years. I watched many of my friends and family die under the claws of werewolves. I may be small and weak, but now the wolves are coming for my home again and I cannot stand by and do nothing.

I can protect them, but in order to do that, I’ll have to commit to the demands of my enemy. They believe I’ll do what they say, because I'm afraid and honestly, I’m terrified. Living with the monsters from my nightmares, who wouldn’t be?

Still, I will never turn my back on my people, even if I won’t survive this.

And the crown prince? Causing destruction and despair runs through his blood. He’s probably even worse than the rest of them.

Right?

Sierra Lane was out for a fresh start. After finding her fiance in bed with a close friend she'd packed up and moved out of the city, promising herself she was going on a break from men. She'd endured one too many heartbreaks and she was finally done.

Or so she thought.

Her plans blurred in no time. The last person she could possibly be with turned out to be the one she wanted the most. He was way out of her league. Apart from being a billionaire CEO and single dad, he was also her boss. She would have been content hiding in the shadows and denying her attraction to him.

If he hadn't made it his mission to have her.


Jayden Grey could not remember the last time he'd felt the burning desire to be with a woman. Until her. He wasn't sure why he wanted her so much that everything else came second. He figured it could be the fact that his son seemed to have formed a special bond with her. Or maybe it was because she had showed up in his life at a point in his life where he needed her the most.

Or maybe it was the fact that just the thought of her made him hard.

He wanted her. Badly. And even though she was determined to resist him, he was even more determined to have her. Mind, body and soul. He loved a good chase after all. It was only a matter of time before he had her exactly as he wanted.

Permanently his.
