Forbidden Flames: A brother's best friend billionaire romance

Orion De Luca is a force to be reckoned with-dark, dangerous, and cloaked in secrets. He's cold, ruthless, and completely opposed to any form of relationship that extends further than a night in the bedroom. To the world, he's a mysterious businessman recently named New York's Most Eligible Bachelor, but the facade hides a man who crosses lines without remorse and who's pursuits know no boundaries, heedless of the consequences. But when he's forced to protect his best friend's sister from a past threat, he's forced to ask himself one question: is Emerson a line even he shouldn't cross? Emerson Fields is an aspiring lawyer who's life so far has been one tragic event after the other. Ready for a fresh start and excited to embrace her future, Emerson moves in with her protective older brother, Atlas, when she returns to the city after college. But following a series of unfortunate events, Emmy finds herself sharing a penthouse with the one man who manages to turn her world upside down with a single glance. Despite his indifference towards her, the danger leaking with every step he takes and their continuous tendency to butt heads, Emmy finds herself drawn to him like a moth to a flame. Her brother's best friend. A promise of corruption. And against her better judgement, she couldn't seem to stay away. Their love becomes a whirlwind of possessiveness and heat but as their relationship ignites, secrets buried deep begin to surface, threatening to unravel not only their forbidden affair but also the very fabric of Emmy's life, and as she learns to heal from her past, she discovers that some truths are more devastating than she ever could have imagined.
