Ink & Torn
Lena Hawthorne thought she knew the game. She'd been climbing the corporate ladder for years, always staying one step ahead of the chaos, always keeping her heart guarded. But nothing could have prepared her for the ruthless world of CrossTech-or its enigmatic CEO, Dominic Cross.
Dominic is a man built from iron, haunted by a past that could destroy everything he's worked for. He's ruthless, calculating, and has spent his life hiding behind walls of silence and ambition. His empire is his only family, and no one is allowed close enough to see the cracks beneath the surface. That is, until Lena walks into his life.
Hired to fix the cracks in his company, Lena's curiosity leads her down a dangerous path-one filled with old secrets, broken promises, and a family legacy that's buried beneath a web of lies. But when Lena uncovers a hidden folder in the depths of CrossTech's archives, she's drawn into a puzzle that threatens to unravel everything Dominic has built.
And the more she discovers, the harder it becomes to keep her distance from him.
As the stakes rise and secrets spill into the open, the dangerous line between business and personal begins to blur. But with Dominic's past crashing into the present, and his estranged half-brother, Vincent, threatening to expose everything, Lena must decide whether to fight for the empire she's come to care for... or protect the man who might just destroy it all.
But Dominic is a man who never asks for help-and Lena is a woman who's spent her whole life protecting her heart. In a world of ink and iron, their love may be the one thing neither of them can control.
