LOGLINE
After playing a reckless game, a spoiled and gullible girl did not expect to find herself in a serious relationship with an intriguing and no-nonsense guy who starts to discipline her.
BLURB
Inara is a spoiled and gullible girl from a religious home. Lemuel is a very handsome model and billionaire businessman from a wealthy family.
Their paths cross when, under the influence of a dark, reckless game involving supernatural elements, she pins her pregnancy on him. She expects rejection, but instead, Lemuel marries her out of revenge, intending to control and punish her.
As he discovers the truth behind her actions, his harsh approach shifts to tough love. Along the way, unexpected feelings emerge, and their bond is tested by external threats.
Can Inara survive the dark game and find true love?
EXCERPT
She listened as he stepped forward with his belt, moving closer to her and crowding her with the musky scent he was wearing.
She fought to hold back her fear as finally, he came to stand behind her. She felt his fingers gently combing her hair down over her shoulders. Then he started speaking slowly, his deep voice starting to shake her demeanor as he talked to her.
“You didn’t marry a soft knight in shining armor that will cuddle, ignore and pet you every time you choose to deliberately get out of line. I will punish you thoroughly for your disobedience...”

It started with a reckless game.
Inara, a sheltered and naïve girl from a religious home, is dared to do the unthinkable—fake a pregnancy and pin it on a stranger. Her target? Lemuel—a wealthy, striking model with a no-nonsense demeanor and a commanding presence.
She expects rejection. He proposes marriage.
What was meant to be her way out becomes a deeper trap. Lemuel, determined to discipline her deception, draws Inara into his world of structure, rules, and control. But beneath his tough exterior lies something even more dangerous—genuine emotion.
As lines blur between punishment and passion, Inara begins to transform—and so does the man who once only sought revenge.
Can love survive a lie this deep?
Or will it destroy them both?
