Tangled Hearts and Hidden Vows: Seven Stories of Love, Lies, and the Bonds That Break or Heal (Velvet Ink: Shades of Desire #3)

Love wears many masks—and each one hides a truth too powerful to ignore.

A sunshine-hearted assistant discovers her grumpy boss is playing a game she never agreed to. A billionaire swears an oath that blurs the line between power and passion. A celebrity’s bodyguard tries to keep her safe from the world, even as he becomes the most dangerous risk of all. A fake engagement meant to seal a deal spirals into real emotions no contract could contain. Two enemies locked in a battle of wills find themselves tangled in temptation that feels impossible to resist. A billionaire facing fatherhood learns that protecting an heir means protecting his heart. And in a world of curses and magic, two souls fight against destiny to prove that love is the most unbreakable spell.

From glittering penthouses to hidden dangers, from boardrooms to realms touched by magic, each story pulls you into a world where attraction sparks against the odds, secrets test every bond, and passion collides with the walls built to keep it out.

When power clashes with vulnerability, when lies dance with desire, and when hope battles heartbreak—can love truly win?
