ENTANGLED ECSTASY

WARNING: R[18] STORY WITH EXTREMELY EXPLICIT/MATURE CONTENT

Joaquin Antonio Jr. commands boardrooms with the confidence of a self-made CEO—wealthy, magnetic, and notoriously indifferent to commitment. Women pursue him relentlessly, drawn by his fortune and charisma, yet he treats romance as a game with no stakes.

When his father demands he marry within sixty days to prevent a betrothal to his childhood friend—already secretly engaged to his best friend Patrick—Joaquin seizes an unexpected solution: a stranger bride who will satisfy his father's ultimatum.

The twist? She's Lara, the woman he seduced four years ago, now mother to his daughter—a child he never knew existed.

Accepting her proposal means more than just avoiding an unwanted marriage. It risks his family's prestigious legacy. If Lara's troubled past becomes public, the Antonio name could crumble. His father has built an empire on honor, and scandal could destroy everything.

Yet Lara is the one person who genuinely loves him—the only woman who saw past his lies and deception.

Now Joaquin faces an impossible choice: protect his father's empire and walk away from the only authentic connection he's ever known, or defy the man he's always obeyed for a love born from deception.

What happens when a marriage built on dishonesty becomes the only truth that matters?
