Terms of surrender
Aria Sterling, the self-made tech billionaire known as the “Ice Queen,”inherits her late father’s empire with one cruel stipulation: marry within a year or lose it all. Desperate to protect her life’s work, she devises a ruthless solution, a fake marriage to Kai Donovan, her infuriatingly handsome Head of Security and the only man who dares defy her. Kai, an ex-military rogue with a shadowy past, agrees to the charade for $10 million, but on his terms: no secrets, no walls, and no mercy.
Their marriage is a battlefield. Aria clings to control, while Kai dismantles her icy facade with smoldering banter, midnight rescues, and a vow to protect her even from herself. But as corporate sabotage threatens her empire, and a kidnapper’s bullet nearly ends her life Aria’s carefully constructed walls crumble. Kai’s relentless loyalty forces her to confront the scars of her father’s betrayal and the terrifying truth: she’s falling for the man sworn to expose her darkest secrets.
Amidst glittering galas, deadly boardroom schemes, and tropical nights charged with forbidden desire, Aria and Kai walk a razor’s edge between hatred and obsession. When Kai risks his life to save hers, their fake vows collide with explosive reality. But trust is a luxury neither can afford, not when his past is tangled in her father’s sins, and her enemies demand blood.
Terms of Surrender is a fiery tale of power, passion, and redemption, where love is the ultimate gamble. Can a queen who rules with ice surrender to a man forged in fire? Or will the ghosts of their pasts destroy the fragile empire they’ve built and the hearts they never meant to lose?
