Marked by My Rival

Stella Monroe

Synopsis

Description：
Adrian Mercer trusts logic, hard work, and the kind of self-control that keeps his life neatly contained. Then he catches his Omega fiance in bed with someone else and discovers that humiliation is only the beginning.

The fallout pulls him straight into Damian Sterling's orbit. Damian is another Alpha executive, richer, sharper, and infuriatingly confident, exactly the kind of man Adrian should avoid. Unfortunately, Damian also smells like mint, looks far too comfortable taking charge, and keeps appearing whenever Adrian is most off balance.

What starts as a clash of pride quickly turns into something far more dangerous. Their pheromones react in ways Adrian does not understand, making every conversation feel like a challenge and every touch feel like a test. Worse, the people around them start looking at Adrian differently, as if they can sense the shift before he can.

With a cheating fiance, a suspicious Omega with hidden motives, and Damian pushing past every boundary Adrian sets, his carefully managed life is collapsing fast. Adrian may be an expert at business, but he is hopeless when it comes to desire, and Damian Sterling seems determined to prove that control is only another thing Adrian is about to lose.

In a world where scent can spark desire and status can ruin reputations, Adrian has one rule left: never trust the Alpha who already has his pulse racing.
Author Biography：

She's running from London's marriage mart. He's running out of time to save his estate. Neither intends to fall in love--but their hearts have other plans.

American heiress Calliope Hart is thrust into London's high society against her will, all because her mother is determined to marry her off to an aristocrat.

When he boldly declares his intentions, she swiftly rejects him, making it clear she has no interest in marrying for convenience.

All I Ever Wanted Was Out

Cassandra Vane

Description：
At fifteen, Rory Ellison was brilliant, ambitious, and completely out of options.

An arranged engagement to Nathan Harrington — heir to one of the wealthiest families in the state — had been decided for her by a powerful old man she couldn't refuse. Nathan despised her. His mother plotted against her. And the professor who'd engineered it all watched from a distance, testing her without mercy.

So Rory decided to play the long game.

She would become Nathan's most devoted, most humiliating admirer. She would make herself indispensable to the family — and unbearable to him. She would maneuver every piece into place, and then, at exactly the right moment, walk away.

*All I Ever Wanted Was Out* is a razor-sharp story of a girl who refused to be someone else's prize — and the decade it took to prove it.

Some games are won by never playing the way they expect.
