JORDAN He took me in when I had nowhere else to go. He doesn’t use me, hurt me, or forget about me. He listens to me, protects me, and sees me. I can feel his eyes on me over the breakfast table, and my heart pumps so hard when I hear him pull in the driveway after work. I have to stop this. It can’t happen.

But the more I try to bury our connection, the more the arrogant beast drags me closer. It’s a twisted game I’m sure to lose, especially when a scandal from the past brings danger to Redwood Prep. And yet Zane won’t take no for an answer. He’s chaos wrapped in a chiseled jawline and screaming blue eyes. Tempting me to taste the forbidden. Luring me to the edge of the cliff. I won’t allow myself to surrender. The problem is… Zane Cross has made it clear he wants me. And that monster? He doesn’t lose. \\\ This is a forbidden romance between a student and teacher.

My father's business partner will do anything for the empire they built together...Even marry me. Declan Hardy, All-American heartthrob and retired NFL billionaire, is my complete opposite. He's commanding where I'm cooperative. Spontaneous while I am deliberate. Loud when I stay quiet. The only thing we have in common is that both our names are on my father's will. He'll inherit the fitness and hospitality empire and I'll keep the one thing I hold dear. As long as I marry him—with conditions. One year of a fake marriage. One year of living together. One year of pretending I belong in his luxury lifestyle. But stipulations are never that simple. Especially when I can't tell if his kisses are fake or if I'm pretending when I kiss him back. And as more conditions arise, it's clear there's a fine line between commitment and betrayal... and neither of us knows where that line falls. Between Commitment and Betrayal is a billionaire, forced proximity, fake marriage of convenience and a father’s business partner novel. It is a complete standalone by Shain Rose.
