I bet Hercules doesn't know that he's my first. Yet here we are again, gazing into each other's eyes. But tonight feels different. We're both adults, fully capable of choosing our own paths. And our desire for each other wants to defy any restraint. So truly, honestly... What will happen if we finally and irrevocably cross the line? Crossing the Line, the first book o f The Lord Brothers of Manhattan series of standalone books is a heart-stopping second-chance romance filled with deep emotions, undeniable chemistry, and the kind of love that defies the odds.
I never thought I’d marry someone to save my business—let alone my ex’s older brother. After a public meltdown on a film set in Iceland, I’m broke, humiliated, and hanging on by a thread trying to keep my restaurant afloat. Then my father shows up with a deal I can’t afford to refuse: marry into the Lord family to satisfy an old-money contract between our feuding families, and in return, I get my trust fund back—and a second chance. Sounds simple, right? Wrong. Because Achilles is the only available Lord brother I can tolerate. He’s a brooding, emotionally frostbitten billionaire who treats me like a PR liability. We’re total opposites. I’m all fire, flair, and spontaneous Instagram Lives. He’s spreadsheets, silence, and barely disguised side-eye. Now we’re living together in his gleaming Manhattan penthouse, playing the part of a picture-perfect couple for the media. The forced proximity is maddening—and not just because he’s infuriatingly precise. Because underneath those scowls and cold shoulders, there’s a man who keeps showing up for me when no one else does. This was supposed to be a simple contract. No strings. No feelings. But the longer we fake our way through this engagement, the more I wonder: are we destined to attract, repel… or completely combust? A Fake Love Deal is a steamy billionaire romance with family saga tension, starring a heroine determined to play by her own rules.

I will take some accountability here. After all, there's a method to this man's madness. My boss's name is Orion Lord.
