Mine

She perfected the art of invisibility.
He perfected the art of obsession.

Lena Monroe has everything: a powerful husband, a beautiful Geneva home—a life that looks flawless from the outside. But inside, she’s disappearing fast. Her only true escape? Writing forbidden, filthy novels under a secret pen name. Her words are dark… and definitely not for public consumption.

Enter Dr. Daniel Carter: brilliant, dangerous, out for revenge against the man who destroyed his career (hint: Lena’s husband). Seducing Lena was supposed to be his weapon.

But then Daniel stumbles on Lena’s secret pages—her unfulfilled fantasies, her hidden cravings, every dark desire she’s too scared to say out loud. Now? Destroying her husband isn’t enough. Daniel wants to give Lena every wicked thing she’s written about—whether she’s ready or not.

When the man sent to break you becomes the only one who truly sees you…
Game over for everyone.

Description

MINE

She chose her marriage. He found her anyway. Lena Monroe thought one night with Daniel Carter was a mistake she could bury. Then she became Mara Black — and he saw straight through it. Dark, explicit, and achingly honest. This is not a love story. Not yet. 🌶️🌶️🌶️

Lena Monroe has two lives. The respectable Geneva wife with a fantasy writing career and a husband who’s finally paying attention. And the woman who spent one reckless night with Daniel Carter — the brilliant, dangerous neurosurgeon who made her feel things Mark never could.

She made her choice. She went back.

Then she launched her dark romance alter ego, and Daniel saw straight through the disguise.

“Writing about me, Mara, my little girl?”

She said no. She lied.

Mine is the story of a woman torn between the life she built and the desire she can’t bury. Between a husband who finally wants the dangerous version of her, and the man who made her dangerous in the first place.

My husband sees me as a trophy.
My lover wants to destroy me, or save me.

My name is Lena Monroe. I have spent seven years playing a role. Perfect wife, invisible woman. Everything changes the day Dr. Daniel Carter, Geneva’s golden neurosurgeon turned outcast, decides to make me his revenge.

He wants me. He wants to break me, own me, watch me lose it all. Until he’s the one losing control.

Are you ready to find out how far obsession will take you?

I don’t lose. Not even when the world falls apart.

I was Geneva’s golden surgeon, until one mistake destroyed everything. Now I want revenge. Nothing is more satisfying than seducing the wife of the man who ruined me.

Lena Monroe was supposed to be just a pawn. But she burns with a dangerous fire, one that could consume everything, even me.

I want to own her, break her, keep her. But in this game, I might be the one who loses it all.

How far would you go to destroy, or to love?
