BENEATH HER EMPIRE
Billionaires Isabella Ramirez is a ruthless, self-made billionaire and the undisputed queen of the Mexican mafia. At just 28, she commands a vast criminal empire built on loyalty, deception, and fear. But beneath her ironclad exterior, Isabella is scarred by betrayal. Three of her former lovers-men who helped her rise to power-crossed her, engaging in secret affairs with other women. In a fit of jealous rage, Isabella eliminates them one by one, leaving her heart hardened and her trust in others shattered.
As enemies close in, seeking to dismantle her empire, Isabella faces an even greater threat: her power is fragile, and she's running out of allies. To secure her empire and ensure its survival, Isabella reluctantly agrees to an arranged marriage with Alejandro De La Cruz, the heir to a rival cartel. The marriage is a strategic move to unite their forces, but Isabella's distrust of men, especially those who manipulate her, makes her hesitant to embrace the alliance.
Alejandro, with his own dark secrets and ambitions, knows that the marriage is not just a business transaction but an opportunity to claim power. The union forces them into a volatile relationship full of tension, passion, and mind games. Despite their animosity and power struggles, an undeniable attraction grows between them. But in a world where betrayal is common and loyalty is scarce, neither can be sure if their love is genuine or just another game of dominance.
As the mafia war intensifies, Isabella must confront her feelings for Alejandro while grappling with the ghosts of her past. Her remaining lovers, still loyal to her, fight for her affection and the future of her empire, but Isabella must choose between love and power. Ultimately, her arranged marriage becomes her only hope to preserve everything she has built. But can she find redemption and trust in a man whose true intentions remain unclear?
In a world defined by violence, betrayal, and passion, Isabella's journey to protect her empire will force her to sacrifice her own heart in the process.

I Slapped My Fiancé-Then Married His Billionaire Nemesis
Jessica C. Dolan Being second best is practically in my DNA. My sister got the love, the attention, the spotlight. And now, even her damn fiancé.
Technically, Rhys Granger was my fiancé now-billionaire, devastatingly hot, and a walking Wall Street wet dream. My parents shoved me into the engagement after Catherine disappeared, and honestly? I didn't mind. I'd crushed on Rhys for years. This was my chance, right? My turn to be the chosen one?
Wrong.
One night, he slapped me. Over a mug. A stupid, chipped, ugly mug my sister gave him years ago. That's when it hit me-he didn't love me. He didn't even see me. I was just a warm-bodied placeholder for the woman he actually wanted. And apparently, I wasn't even worth as much as a glorified coffee cup.
So I slapped him right back, dumped his ass, and prepared for disaster-my parents losing their minds, Rhys throwing a billionaire tantrum, his terrifying family plotting my untimely demise.
Obviously, I needed alcohol. A lot of alcohol.
Enter him.
Tall, dangerous, unfairly hot. The kind of man who makes you want to sin just by existing. I'd met him only once before, and that night, he just happened to be at the same bar as my drunk, self-pitying self. So I did the only logical thing: I dragged him into a hotel room and ripped off his clothes.
It was reckless. It was stupid. It was completely ill-advised.
But it was also: Best. Sex. Of. My. Life.
And, as it turned out, the best decision I'd ever made.
Because my one-night stand isn't just some random guy. He's richer than Rhys, more powerful than my entire family, and definitely more dangerous than I should be playing with.
And now, he's not letting me go. The Bride He Cast Away on Their Wedding Night

Meanwhile, the family that disowned her and the fragile, manipulative sister who stole her life are determined to ruin her reputation and drive her out for good.
