Love was never safe. Desire came with a cost. And trust? That was something she swore she would never give freely again.Until billionaire Mr. Hassan, a man of quiet power and unwavering control. Sayid has been watching over Nora long before she ever knew his name. Protecting and providing for her from afar, letting her heal on her own terms. He never interfered. Never imposed. Never demanded more than she was willing to give. He denied his own desires in order to put hers first.When fate finally brings them together, the pull between them is undeniable. Sayid is everything Nora never knew she needed—fiercely devoted, endlessly patient, and wholly unafraid to show her what it means to be cherished. To be worthy of all her desires, without pain, without fear.But as their passion ignites and she learns to trust again, secrets from the past refuse to stay buried. With every step she takes toward happiness, the ghosts of her trauma threaten to pull her back under. What she doesn’t realize is that Sayid has always known the weight she carries. And he will stop at nothing to prove that she was never meant to carry it alone. Because she is his. And if anyone dares to take her from him? He will burn the world down to the ground to get her back. less
