Reads
Five years ago, Jack Sullivan was the most feared trial lawyer in the city. Then Sterling & Vance framed him, took his license, and left him pouring drinks in a dive bar. Now a desperate young attorney walks in with one hopeless case: a single mother being thrown out of her home by the very firm that destroyed him. Jack can't set foot in a courtroom — but he can build the weapon, aim it, and watch the firm that framed him walk into it. They should have finished him when they had the chance.

The Secret Billionaire Groom
Reads
On his wedding day, Ethan Cole's new in-laws tow his rusty pickup into the ballroom as a joke, parade him in front of two hundred guests, and make him sign a prenup swearing he'll never touch a cent of the Hart family fortune. Ethan signs it with a smile. Because what the Harts don't know — what almost no one alive knows — is that the grease-stained mechanic is the founder of VoltCore, worth more than their entire empire. And he hasn't come to marry into their family. He's come to collect a twenty-year-old debt.
