Captive Heart: The Dangerous CEO's Trap
“Brenda Vincent thought her biggest nightmare was catching her boyfriend cheating with her roommate on her own sofa. But her life truly derailed after a drunken night led her into the bed of Bryon Reeves, the ruthless billionaire CEO and older brother of the student she tutored. Trying to pay off the most dangerous man in New York with a crumpled twenty-dollar bill was her first mistake. Fleeing the hotel, she accidentally rear-ended his custom Maybach. Bryon used the massive repair bill to blackmail her into being his fake date, parading her at a gala just to make his sister-in-law jealous. When Brenda finally snapped and fled the humiliation, only to be rescued by his biggest corporate rival, Bryon's twisted possessiveness turned completely destructive. "If you feel kidnapped, call the police. But your teaching license will be permanently revoked." He didn't just threaten her. He systematically dismantled her life, using his influence to force the university to freeze her tenure and suspend her without pay. Brenda couldn't understand why this terrifying man was going to such extreme lengths to ruin a simple tutor who just wanted to be left alone. Now, stripped of her career, her income, and her independence, she was forced into the sprawling Reeves Manor. Hearing the heavy mahogany door lock from the outside in her signal-jammed bedroom, Brenda's panic slowly morphed into a cold, clinical rage. She was trapped, but she refused to be his helpless pawn.”
