Sleeping with the Enemy
(2026)(The first book in the Phoenix Ridge Billionaires series)
A novel by Emily Hayes
Astoria Shepry is the billionaire Ice Queen everyone loves to hate.
Miller Scott is the up and coming divorce lawyer working for Astoria Shepry's ex wife.
Miller Scott walks into the Shepry divorce ready to destroy Astoria Shepry for what she’s done to her ex-wife. The story seems clear. The villain already chosen.
But when Miller finally faces Astoria across the table, nothing is as simple as it should be.
Cold, controlled, and devastatingly powerful, Astoria gives nothing away — and the evidence doesn’t quite add up. As cracks form in the case, so does something far more dangerous: attraction.
Now Miller is trapped between duty and desire, loyalty and truth… and falling for the one woman she’s meant to ruin.
Because the closer Miller gets to Astoria, the harder it is to tell where the fight ends… and the obsession begins.
In a war of power, reputation, and temptation, one of them is playing dirty.
And when the truth finally comes out, it won’t just cost millions—
it could cost them everything they swore they’d never feel.
Sleeping with the Enemy is a steamy sapphic enemies-to-lovers romance featuring a billionaire Ice Queen, razor-sharp tension, explosive chemistry, and a deeply satisfying Happy Ever After.
Genre: Gay Romance
