Collateral to Mr. Wolfe

Ria Marlowe's family hotel is drowning in debt she never earned—three million dollars borrowed in her name by an ex-husband who disappeared the moment the ink dried. When the ruthless financier Killian Wolfe buys her loan, she arrives at his glass tower prepared to beg for time. Instead, he offers to erase the debt entirely. No payments. No foreclosure. One condition: the collateral he wants isn't her hotel. It's her. Live under his control, surrender to his terms, and everything she's fought to protect stays hers. Desperate and out of options, Ria accepts a deal that feels like a trap—because it is one, just not the trap she thinks. Killian isn't the predator. He's the only man who already knows her ex engineered this catastrophe from the start, and every calculated demand, every controlling gesture, has been a shield he can't name. As power and desire collide in the space between them, Ria will have to decide: is she his collateral, or has she always been his equal?
