Beautiful Deception - A Fake Dating Dark Billionaire Enemies Romance #982650

She signed a contract to pretend she loved him.
She never planned to mean it.

Vera Morozova does not believe in billionaires. She believes in documentation. As one of the sharpest antiquities attorneys in America, she has spent four years building an airtight legal case around a Byzantine imperial artifact worth millions — a case that could finally clear her grandmother's name after thirty-five years of deliberate erasure.

Then Nikolai Sorokin walks into a Manhattan auction house, says her name like he already owns the syllables, and makes her an offer she cannot afford to refuse.

Ten days in Istanbul. A fake engagement. Access to archives that do not officially exist. The deal is simple: she performs the role of his devoted fiancée at the most elite — and most dangerous — antiquities gathering in the world. He provides the access she has been denied for fourteen months. They both get what they came for and walk away clean.

Except nothing about Nikolai Sorokin is clean.
He knew who she was six months before he approached her. He has files on her research, her grandmother's case, and the provenance trail she has been quietly destroying his family's legacy with. He did not choose her by accident. And the deeper she gets into Istanbul's gilded, corrupt inner circle — the harder it becomes to perform a love she did not agree to feel.

Nikolai built his empire on his father's version of history. Vera has spent her life dismantling it. Between them lies an 800-year-old imperial secret, a three-generation family war, and a document that will force him to choose between the dynasty he inherited and the woman who never needed rescuing — only an equal.

Beautiful Deception is a slow-burn, emotionally charged dark billionaire romance featuring fake dating, enemies to lovers, forced proximity, and a hero who destroys his own legacy for the only woman who never asked him to. Readers who love the psychological tension of Ana Huang, the alpha intensity of J.S. Scott, and the slow-burn warmth of Lauren Asher will find all three woven into every chapter.
