Hateful Games (Arranged Games #2) - Discreet

"He may be the big bad villain in my story. Too bad, he doesn't know just how villainous I am."

Rosalie

Matches are made in heaven

Except mine was custom made in hell.

Scorched in the flames of hate, sown in the seed of deception and cursed with a life of doom.

A piece of paper I signed at sixteen and I was betrothed to him.

Nova D'Cruz.

The Heir to the Cruz Empire. The son of my family's biggest rival and enemy.

Now, my arranged husband.

Villainous. Manipulative. Vindictive.

He vowed to make me burn for eternity.

Little does he know, I've been burnt long before he touched me.

Nova

I never wanted a wife. Period.

Certainly not a girl who roamed like she's the devil's own child in all her black glory.

Until my father declared I was to marry her and end the decade long rivalry between our families.

Rosalie Kapoor.

Exquisitely stunning. Fiery. A bloody thorn in my side.

Nevertheless, I wasn't deterred. My plan was to marry her, right the wrongs done and get my revenge. Then divorce her to pick up the tattered remains of her life.

But then she got under my skin.

With her fire.

With her vengeful pranks.

With every insult.

Especially her resistance to not bend to my will.

And all my plans went to hell.

Until a single vow remained, to make her bow... and keep her.

Please Note: It is a steamy high burn contemporary billionaire romance with a morally grey antihero and an equally sassy heroine.
