The Velvet Game
(2026)(The first book in the Velvet Trap Billionaires series)
A novel by Alessa Kelly
Desperation makes dangerous doors look inviting.
I’m an artist with more than my own bills to pay. Waiting is a luxury I no longer have.
So I infiltrate an exclusive club chasing inspiration. What I find is a game built on secrecy, power, and desire. Masks hide faces. Names are meaningless. No one leaves unchanged.
Wolf is part of the game’s architecture. I don’t need to see his face to know he’s rich, powerful, and used to owning every room he enters.
I am meant to be invisible, but the moment he looks too closely, the rules bend and the game turns personal.
The risk isn’t in playing.
It’s wanting him without an ending, and realizing too late that the game was never the real danger.
Genre: Romance
