Silent Empire: A Forbidden Romance
Emma Belle Hart
He needed a wife to secure his empire. She needed a miracle to save her family. The contract was simple: no feelings, no touch, no truth.
Violet Sinclair is a woman drowning in her family’s debt, forced to work for the very industry that stripped her of her name. When Dominic Steele—the ruthless, silver-tongued titan of the architectural world—offers her a way out, she has no choice but to sign on the dotted line. The deal? A fake engagement to polish his public image. The cost? Her soul.
Dominic is a man built of stone and secrets, a billionaire who views people as assets to be acquired. But as they move from high-stakes boardrooms to the intimate shadows of his penthouse, the lines of their agreement begin to blur. Behind his cold exterior lies a fire that threatens to consume them both, and a history that links their families in a web of betrayal.
As the fake vows become dangerously real, Violet must decide if she can love the man who was born to destroy her. In a world where every move is calculated, the most dangerous gamble is the heart.
In the game of power, love is the ultimate hostile takeover.
