Velvet Empire

Adrian Marlowe built his empire on ruthless precision. One whisper of scandal could destroy it all. His solution? A flawless distraction-an engagement no one dares question. Elena Vale is the last woman he should choose. Independent, witty, and untouchable, she refuses to be anyone's ornament. Yet when Adrian offers her the deal of a lifetime, Elena agrees-on her own terms. From glittering penthouses to jet-set galas, their staged passion blazes hotter with every glance.
But as lies blur into longing, obsession threatens to unravel them both. Adrian is a man obsessed with control, and Elena refuses to be controlled. In a world of luxury and deception, trust is the ultimate gamble. One secret could shatter everything-the empire Adrian built, the independence Elena fights for, and the love neither expected to find. Perfect for fans of enemies-to-lovers, fake engagements, and billionaire romances filled with heat, heart, and high stakes, Velvet Empire is a seductive story where power and passion collide
