The Billionaire's Forbidden Nanny: Forbidden and Forever
She's the nanny. He's her boss. His mother wants her gone. Camille Torres doesn't belong in a Park Avenue penthouse. She belongs in the Bronx, finishing her teaching degree and keeping her family afloat. But when a billionaire offers her a salary that could change everything, she takes the job—and walks straight into trouble. Ethan Calloway hasn't smiled since his wife died. His five-year-old daughter hasn't spoken. Seven nannies have quit. He doesn't need another complication—especially not one with quick wit, warm hands, and a mouth that talks back. But Lily starts drawing again. Then laughing. Then reaching for Camille like she's safety. And Ethan? He's reaching too. One kiss in the kitchen. One night that changes everything. One secret that his mother will use to destroy them both. Gloria Calloway doesn't lose. She has money, connections, and a custody lawyer on speed dial. Camille has a thrift-store blazer and the Bronx. But she also has something Gloria will never understand: A little girl who finally calls her Mama.

Manhattan Money Kings Book 3
The Billionaire's Baby Secret
Three years ago, Sophia Reed walked away from a hotel room and a man she should've never trusted—rising mogul Dominic Kane. She built stability the hard way: early trains, late invoices, and a tiny apartment where nothing could touch the life growing inside her. Now the CEO who controls outcomes for a living is back… and the daughter Sophia's protected has the storm-gray eyes he can't deny. When Dominic returns to reclaim his empire, he discovers the truth he was never meant to miss—and a city eager to devour the scandal. He can buy silence, clear rooms, bend markets. But Sophia has rules: boundaries around her child, transparency instead of power plays, and love that's earned, not purchased. Between boardroom wars, paparazzi flash storms, and a custody fight waiting to ignite, he has to become more than a headline and more than a boss. He has to be the father Bella needs…and the partner Sophia deserves.

Manhattan Money Kings Book 2
The Billionaire's Fake Wife
Elena Kim never expected her latest heist to go wrong. Breaking into billionaire David Kim's penthouse was supposed to be her ticket to freedom. Instead, she finds herself caught by a man who's more dangerous—and more compelling—than any mark she's ever targeted. David Kim built his empire on control, precision, and never letting anyone get close. But this beautiful thief has shattered every rule he lives by. Instead of turning her over to the police, he offers a deal: marry him for 12 months in exchange for protection from her violent father. As they work together, their forced alliance ignites into something neither expected. With her father's threats escalating and David's empire at risk, Elena must decide: betray the man she's falling for, or risk everything for a chance at redemption and love.
