She isn’t just coming for Alexandra Vaughn’s company.
She’s coming for her crown.
Alexandra built her empire the old way — legacy, power, precision.
As one of Phoenix Ridge’s most formidable billionaire CEOs, she doesn’t lose control. She doesn’t bend. And she certainly doesn’t fall for her enemies.
Then Simone Rousseau launches a ruthless hostile takeover.
Brilliant. Calculated. Internationally feared. Simone has made a career out of dismantling empires like Alexandra’s — and she wants the throne.
Boardrooms become battlefields.
Negotiations turn into psychological warfare.
Every strategic strike is personal.
But beneath the razor-sharp suits and carefully measured attacks, something far more dangerous ignites.
Simone is the first woman who matches Alexandra’s intellect — and her ice.
Alexandra is the only opponent Simone has ever wanted… instead of defeated.
As the takeover escalates and two Ice Queens collide, desire blurs the line between enemy and equal.
Because the closer they get to destroying each other’s empires…
…the harder it becomes not to surrender.
