Power. Passion. Payback.

A billionaire who never chases. A woman who never yields. At a discreet auction, Beatrix Winslow-Hale, heiress to a legacy and rising literary star, crosses paths with Dorian Wolker, a collector whose name can move markets.

Their first wager is a glance. The second is a challenge. The third could ruin a dynasty.

What starts as a dare becomes a negotiation neither intends to lose: silence for access, truth for leverage, attraction for trust. One wrong move, and the story Beatrix is chasing could burn either of them. From New York penthouses to the Eiffel Tower, AcClaim delivers a dark, elegant romance about ambition, consent, and the risk of being truly seen.

When desire is currency, who takes the final claim?

    I received a copy of this from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. I had fun with this. I enjoyed the dynamics of the power play between Dorian and B. Manon was a very fun character, and her friendship with B was very entertaining. I did feel a little off about how the twist was played out, and I'm not sure if that tainted the outcome of how I felt overall. But I still finished the book and I'm glad I did. It was an intriguing read on how power can be wielded by women. With the way the book started, I think I expected more 'spicy' scenes than I read, but it was still enjoyable without a barrage of smut. Thank you for the ARC copy.
