Surrender

When Elara Sinclair, curator of London's prestigious Harrow Gallery, accepts a partnership proposal from billionaire collector Lucian Ashford, she expects boardroom negotiations - not a man whose patience feels like a threat and whose attention feels like possession. What begins as a professional arrangement quickly spirals into a game of power, desire, and control. Lucian doesn't demand. He proposes. He waits. He studies every line she draws and then crosses it slowly enough to make her feel each inch. But Elara is no one's possession. As their worlds collide, secrets surface that threaten to destroy everything the gallery, their reputations, and the intoxicating connection neither of them can resist. How far would you go for someone who could give you everything... and take it all away?A scorching dark romance about control, obsession, and the thin line between love and surrender.
