She came to Bangkok for a deal. She found a war.
Cyan St. James doesn't make mistakes. The Black American hospitality executive has spent four years rebuilding her career after a powerful man stole her work and used their affair to destroy her reputation. Now she's SVP at Aurelius Hotels, sent to close an acquisition that will cement her comeback.
She doesn't plan on Niran Wongchai.
He fights because it's the only honest thing left.
Thai billionaire. Muay Thai champion. The man they call the Chairman. Niran inherited an empire built on corruption and has spent eleven years trying to clean it. He doesn't let anyone close. Doesn't need anyone. Doesn't want the American executive who shows up at his fight and watches him break a man without flinching.
Then someone puts her in the wrong seat. His mother's seat. And Niran realizes they're both being played.
The game is bigger than either of them knows.
Someone is orchestrating their association. Photographing their meetings. Weaponizing their attraction to destroy them both. Niran's stepbrother has been planning this takedown for eleven years, and Cyan has just become the perfect pawn.
She should walk away. Protect her career. Let him fight his own war.
Instead, she stays. Because the man beneath the control is worth the risk. Because she's tired of running from the things she wants. Because somewhere between the threats and the boardrooms and the nights that burn hotter than Bangkok in monsoon season, she's fallen for a fighter who's learning that love isn't weakness.
It's the only strength that matters.
Black Tie Violence: Fortune and Fury is a standalone dark romance featuring a Thai MMC and Black American FMC, explicit heat, corporate intrigue, found family, and two people who refuse to break—even when the whole world is trying to shatter them.
Genre: Mystery
