Sinclair Brothers

My ruthless billionaire boss needs a fake fiancée. I need the money. What could possibly go wrong when enemies are forced to play lovers? Hudson Sinclair doesn't do love. The cold-hearted CEO does contracts, conquests, and control. Until a cryptic letter from his dead father changes everything: marry within four weeks or lose his empire. Enter me-Scarlett Colton. I walked into his office to drop off paperwork, not to become his pretend girlfriend. But when I discover the obscene salary attached to this charade, I can't say no. My brother's drowning in debt, and Hudson Sinclair's money is our lifeline. The rules are simple: Fake the romance. Secure the ring. Walk away rich. Except nothing about Hudson Sinclair is simple. His touch ignites flames I swore I'd never feel again. Every "accidental" brush of his fingers, every heated glance across the boardroom, every whispered threat that sounds more like a promise-it's pure torture. And the way he looks at me when he thinks I'm not watching? Like he wants to devour me whole. But I'm harboring a secret that could destroy us both. I'm not the airhead heiress he thinks he hired. And when the most powerful man in the city discovers my deception, pretending to hate him becomes impossible. Because somewhere between the fake kisses and very real desire, the line blurred. Now I'm his. And he's mine. Even if it costs me everything.

He's the billionaire who owns everything-except her business. She's the enemy he went undercover to destroy-by becoming her employee. And neither of them can leave. The biggest deal of my career requires one thing: Zoey Smith's bookshop café. She doesn't know I'm Magnus Sinclair. Doesn't know I inherited my father's ruthless empire along with his final command-prove myself worthy or lose everything. She definitely doesn't know that the "desperate job applicant" she just hired is worth more than her entire block. All she knows is that I'm terrible at making coffee. And that I can't stop staring at her mouth when she explains the register for the third time. Going undercover was supposed to be simple. Find her weakness. Exploit it. Take what's mine. Except Zoey isn't just some obstacle to demolish. She's five feet of pure defiance wrapped in curves that make me forget why I walked through her door. Every shift together is torture. Every accidental touch burns. Every laugh makes me hate myself a little more. But I can't stop. Not when my father's legacy depends on this deal. Not when everything I've built hangs in the balance. And definitely not when I'm this close to having her exactly where I want her. Only I'm starting to realize that's the problem. Because where I want her has nothing to do with real estate and everything to do with the desk in my office. The one where I imagine her- This is wrong. She's the enemy. The one person standing between me and everything that matters. Except she's starting to matter more. And when Zoey discovers who I really am? When she learns her clumsy employee is the billionaire who's been systematically destroying her life? She'll understand why I had no choice. Or she'll destroy me right back. Either way, only one of us survives this intact.

My job: Transform the ruthless billionaire playboy. His goal: Break me instead. Four weeks. Two liars. One inevitable destruction. I've spent my entire life being exactly who I am: Ryder Sinclair, billionaire bad boy who'd rather race Ferraris with European royalty than sit through another board meeting. Until my father delivers an ultimatum that changes everything. Display "sincerity and respectability" in four weeks or lose the Sinclair empire. All of it. Enter Elliot Perry-lifestyle therapist, professional babysitter to spoiled trust fund babies, and the most infuriatingly composed woman I've ever met. She's supposed to transform me into the perfect heir. Make me respectable. What a joke. Except she refuses to help me fake it. She wants real change. Real growth. Real everything. And suddenly I'm trapped in her downtown apartment for "immersive therapy"-her fancy term for forced proximity torture. She controls my schedule, my contacts, even my damn wardrobe. But here's what neither of us counted on: the way she bites her lip when she's fighting her attraction to me. The way I've started wanting her approval more than my father's money. The way "fake it till you make it" became "fake it till you break her rules." Four weeks. That's all we have before I have to face my family and prove I'm a changed man. The problem? Somewhere between her brutal honesty and those stolen moments when our professional boundaries blur, I stopped pretending. She's turning me into someone I never wanted to be-someone who could actually deserve her. But Elliot has secrets of her own about why she really took this job. And when the truth comes out, I'll have to decide what matters more: the billionaire empire I was born to inherit, or the woman who taught me that being real is worth more than all the money in the world. Some transformations can't be faked. And some hearts are meant to be broken.

Never trust a grumpy billionaire who hires you to steal from his own family-especially when he locks you in his penthouse until you deliver. Kingston Sinclair wants one thing: the priceless tiara his family's been hoarding for generations. Not for some sentimental fairytale. For cold, hard cash. I should have walked away the moment he cornered me in that hotel bar, all brooding intensity and dangerous promises. But when the FBI's former top art investigator gets shot and shoved into early retirement, you take the jobs you can get. Even if it means betraying the sweet grandmother who hired me first. The deal was simple: Find the tiara. Get paid by both Sinclairs. Keep my mouth shut about working all sides. What could possibly go wrong? Except Kingston doesn't trust anyone. So now I'm trapped in his Manhattan penthouse-"for security purposes"-with a man who watches me like I'm the real treasure he's hunting. He's grumpy. Controlling. Absolutely ruthless when it comes to getting what he wants. And what he wants is becoming dangerously unclear. Every clue we uncover pulls us deeper into his family's buried secrets. Every night in forced proximity breaks down another wall between us. His hands on my waist when he thinks I might run. The way he growls my name when I challenge him. The moment I realize I'm not just risking my reputation anymore. But Kingston's still planning to destroy his family's legacy. I'm still lying about who really hired me. And the truth we're about to uncover? It's worth killing for. Some treasures are meant to stay buried. Some hearts are meant to stay guarded. And some billionaires are too dangerous to love-even when hating them becomes impossible.
