The Billionaire's Dirty Secret: A Steamy Fake Engagement Romance
Emma Belle Hart
Jordan Cross is an architect with a vision but a failing legacy. When her father’s firm hits rock bottom, she’s forced to make a deal with the Julian Sterling, the cold-hearted "Ice King" of Manhattan real estate. Julian needs a fiancée to secure his seat as CEO; Jordan needs ten million dollars to save her family from ruin.
The terms are No feelings. No future. Just a tactical alignment to fool the board and the press.
But behind the gilded mirrors of the Pierre and the high-stakes boardrooms of Sterling International, the ice begins to melt. Between heated confrontations and stolen moments of raw passion, Jordan discovers the man beneath the monster—a man with secrets as dark as her own.
As the line between performance and reality blurs, a dangerous rival threatens to expose their fraudulent engagement. Now, Jordan and Julian must decide if their foundation of lies can withstand the truth. In a world where power is the only currency, is their love the ultimate merger—or the most expensive mistake of their lives?
A high-heat, enemies-to-lovers billionaire romance with a guaranteed HEA.
