Between His Shadows

He’s the ruthless CEO who built an empire. She’s the brilliant heiress determined to protect hers. They were never supposed to fall for each other. 31-year-old Ekagra Pratap Singh, the cold, calculating CEO of Singh Industries, has only one rule—win at any cost. And now he’s set his sights on acquiring his biggest rival: Rajput Tech, led by the fiercely independent and sharp-tongued Anahita Rajput, age 26. Their first meeting is a battlefield. Their second? A scandal waiting to happen. When a leaked rumor threatens both their companies, a dangerous idea is proposed—fake dating to save their reputations. Forced into proximity, battling for the upper hand, Ekagra and Anahita slowly begin to blur the line between rivalry and something far more dangerous. Corporate espionage, family betrayals, stolen glances in crowded boardrooms, and late-night negotiations that turn into confessions neither of them expected. But falling for each other isn’t just forbidden… It could destroy everything they’ve built. Intense. Emotional. Spicy. Chaotic. A billionaire enemies-to-lovers romance where love becomes the most dangerous deal of all.
