My groom has abandoned me for my sister, and your fiancée has run away. Why don't we turn this awkward situation into an opportunity?” She smiled boldly. “Let's get married, right here, right now!” Westley’s expression remained unreadable, but briefly, a hint of intrigue flickered in his eyes. He raised an eyebrow, “You're suggesting we marry each other, and also we are complete strangers?” Evie nodded in confidence. “Why not? We're both clearly compatible, and this way, we can both save face and gain a partner, except for the fact that this will be a contract marriage of six months.” Westley's gaze lingered on hers as if sizing her up. Then, he nodded slowly. “Very well, let's do it.” ... “You're either very brave or very reckless to make such an attempt in picking me as your husband in public,” he said after the marriage. “If I didn't try, we wouldn't have figured out a way to get this opportunity.” She responded. …. He's an almighty giant of entrepreneurship, standing high among moguls. She was born out of wedlock and denied by her family. She's been fighting tooth and nail to make a name for herself in the cutthroat world of entertainment, refusing to let her illegitimacy define her destiny. Two strangers are brought together under one roof, but their newfound connection has dangerous people lurking around.

In the rain-drenched luxury of a Seoul penthouse, 22-year-old college student Min-jae returns home to a house that feels both familiar and dangerously new. His real mother passed away when he was just 12, leaving him in the shadow of his father's endless business trips. Years later, his father remarried Ji-eun, a stunning 38-year-old Korean beauty with an elegant exterior and a body that hides insatiable desires. Raised alongside his stepsister Yumi, Min-jae has always seen Ji-eun as "Eomma"—the woman who filled the void with warmth, home-cooked meals, and gentle care. But as he matures into a strong, handsome young man, the lines blur. Late nights, accidental touches, lingering glances, and the intoxicating scent of her jasmine perfume awaken something forbidden. With his father away for weeks, the apartment becomes a pressure cooker of tension. Ji-eun's teasing smiles, the way her silk robe slips just enough to reveal soft curves, and her husky whispers calling him "son" push Min-jae to the edge. What begins as innocent guilt spirals into raw, obsessive lust—secret touches, stolen kisses, and nights where boundaries shatter completely. This is a dark, addictive tale of taboo passion, emotional conflict, and unstoppable craving. Will Min-jae give in to the woman who raised him? Or will the risk of discovery—by his father, his stepsister, or society itself—destroy everything? One thing is certain: once the door closes, there's no turning back.

(trigger warning. This book contains mature themes) ****** "I can't..." she gasped between broken moans, her voice trembling somewhere between pain and pleasure. Every thrust seemed to blur the line between surrender and defiance. Then she whispered a name between her sweet cries ...it wasn’t mine. I froze. A slow, humorless smile curved my lips as the sound of his name filled the space between us. “Raph…” she breathed. I leaned in, my mouth brushing her ear. Feeling her tremble from touch until my teeth nibbled her earlobes hard enough to make her whimper and her fold to clench around my fingers. “Wrong name, Lynn.” I hissed, withdrawing from the warmth of her insides. I felt her body tense. She clawed at my shoulders, a desperate plea in every touch. “Don’t…” she whimpered. Those jade-like eyes unravelled me that moment. I could feel the ache in my trousers. A troublesome little viper. A cruel smile traced my lips hiding my emotions. “You called the wrong name,” I murmured, my voice low, dangerous. “And bad girls deserve to be punished.” Her glossy eyes met mine... so full of confusion, want, and power she didn’t yet understand. If she only knew how close I was to breaking. Because the only name she should be calling… was mine. Lucien.
