Beneath the Crimson Lace
Author:Vivienne Thorne
To secure his empire, ruthless billionaire Damien Blackwood buys a wife. He expects compliance, not defiance. Elara, his new bride, is a beautiful enigma who refuses his lavish gifts, including a stunning crimson lace gown for the biggest gala of the year. He thinks it's a game; a test of his will. But when the abrasive fabric tears at her fragile skin, revealing a painful, hidden truth, the dress becomes a symbol of his brutal ignorance. Now, he must unravel the woman he thought he owned, and soothe the scars he inflicted, before his gilded cage shatters them both.
The Ten-Year Pause
Author:Vivienne Thorne
On the night before I left for college, he leaned in to give me the kiss I’d dreamed of for years. Then he stopped. He walked away to ask my brother for permission and never came back. For ten years, that moment of crushing humiliation defined me. Now I’m back in our hometown, a successful architect, and he’s the contractor I’m forced to work with. He’s no longer the boy I adored, but a brooding man full of secrets. And the space between us crackles with a decade of unspoken words, unforgivable hurt, and a desire that never truly died.
