The Replacement Wife

“She thought a contract marriage was her family's only salvation. She didn't know it was a death sentence. To clear her family's crushing debts, archivist Maya Vance agrees to marry Marcus Thorne-a brilliant, ruthlessly cold tech mogul who rules the city from behind glass walls. Marcus is a man wrapped in shadows, known as much for his immense fortune as he is for the dark rumors surrounding the tragic disappearance of his first wife. On their wedding night, Maya uncovers a biometric-locked room hidden deep within his penthouse. Inside are the blood-stained receipts, surveillance feeds, and chilling evidence proving Marcus murdered his former wife-and that Maya was chosen to be next. Trapped in a gilded cage with a monster, Maya has two choices: run and be hunted down, or play a high-stakes psychological game where every touch is a threat and every kiss could be her last. But as dangerous secrets unravel, Maya realizes Marcus isn't the only predator in the house-and the man she fears most might be the only one standing between her and a far darker enemy. Some vows are written in blood. Some secrets refuse to stay buried.”
