His Surrogate

Ashley Crook's world has been nothing but torment since the day she crossed paths with him—a man so ruthless, so utterly brutal, that existence itself felt like a punishment. He was the country's most coveted billionaire, a womanizer with devastating charm and a possessive streak that consumed everything in his wake. She was wild, untamed, a firecracker determined to ignite at the slightest provocation.

When desperation clawed at her throat and poverty threatened to swallow her whole, Ashley found herself facing an impossible choice: surrender to the very man she'd despised for years, or watch her dreams crumble to dust. The sterile hospital walls closed in around her, the acrid smell of antiseptic filling her lungs, forcing her hand in ways she never imagined.

He wanted an heir. She wanted freedom from the crushing weight of her circumstances.

The price he offered was astronomical—enough to change everything. But the condition was unthinkable: become his surrogate, carry his child, bind herself to the mafia-connected CEO who already owned her fear, her hatred, her every waking moment.

Ashley had sworn she'd never let this monster father her child. Yet as the contract dangled before her eyes, she realized the real battle wasn't against him—it was against herself, against the dangerous pull of a man who demanded possession of more than just her body.
