    Summary

    The thing is, she remembers him.

    This hulking shadow in the frame of the doorway. A big, dusty duffle bag next to big, dusty, heavy boots.

    A thick, silver ring, clinking against the neck of a beer bottle.

    That’s all she can think about when they say his name the first time in the warm office of the group home. Just that clink of his ring against a brown bottle in the hazy blue glow of the TV. A droning laugh-track and her parents' laughter mixing in. His eyes sometimes, sliding to her, sitting in the hallway and peeking in.

    She can’t remember him ever laughing.

    Your father’s brother, Miss Andrea said. Logan.

    Did you know about him?

     

    Clink clink.

    Summary

    The windows darken as Vivaldi plays. Through the glass, Isabelle watches something horrifying she can never unsee. Her husband's hand finds hers in the darkness.

    "Happy Valentine's Day, darling."
    --
    Jude Larssen is a legend in London - devastatingly handsome, brilliant, ruthless, untouchable. The man who built an empire through means no one questions too closely. The CEO whose attention makes careers and whose displeasure ends them.

    Isabelle thought she knew what loving him meant. The surveillance exerted for his thrill. The cold distance and absent-minded, rough fucking otherwise.

    But three years into a marriage she thought was dead, he shows her exactly how far his devotion extends. How deep his resources run. How creative his methods. The lengths he will reach to keep her compliant. Subservient. His.

    But Isabelle Hann has never been easy to break. There is still fight in her, defiance in how she challenges him, seeks warmth elsewhere.

    Jude doesn't just want to keep her. He wants her to yield. And he has all the money and patience to make it happen.

    "That word. Husband. The oldest claim."

    Summary

    Isabelle ( Bells ) Hann thought she had her life perfectly mapped out: a prestigious role at a leading tech start up Larssens Ltd, an engagement to the generationally wealthy Theodore Watson, and a future built on safety over passion.

    But her boss has a different vision for her life, for who she can become under him, both physically and metaphorically. And Isabelle can't deny the pull of the handsome maverick building his company through whatever means necessary - blackmail, white collar crime or less than morally sound liasons with business colleagues. His most persistent obsession - secure a contract with the global giant Yamamoto Industries - at all cost - to turbocharge Larssens Ltd to global prominence.

    When he manipulates a business dinner with the Yamamoto CEO by claiming him and Isabelle are engaged (using Theo's engagement ring as a prop, naturally) Bells is drawn further into his spiral of corporate and personal machinations.

    By the end of it, she'll realise it isn't only her career that's at stake. It's her entire life - professional, reputational, and deeply personal.
