A Contract Of Lies

By Marie Duarte

Power. Secrets. Control. Nothing is ever what it seems.

Elena Marlowe never expected to cross paths with Adrian Voss-ruthless CEO, enigmatic strategist, and a man accustomed to controlling every outcome.

One night. One decision. One contract.

He offers protection. She offers obedience.

But behind closed doors lies a web of betrayal, hidden agendas, fractured memories, and a secret powerful enough to destroy them both.

As the truth begins to unravel, Elena must decide what she is willing to lose-and what she is willing to fight for. Because the closer she gets to Adrian, the harder it becomes to separate protection from possession, attraction from manipulation, and memory from design.

When everything is a lie, what is real may be the most dangerous secret of all.

A Contract of Lies is a psychological thriller layered with conspiracy, suspense, dangerous attraction, and a slow-burn romance where nothing-and no one-is exactly what they seem.
