Dark Dominion Series

Her exhibit is butchered hours before the review that will decide her future. The only man who can pull her back from the edge is the one she least wants anywhere near her.

Aria Vale is too talented, too hungry, and too hard-won to be anyone’s charity case. When sabotage rips through her work at the Ravensbridge Institute of Art, she gets an offer that feels more like a threat than a rescue: a year inside Morozov Tower, unlimited resources, and a contract signed by Cassian Morozov—the cold, ruthless power broker who studies her like a risk he has no intention of avoiding.

Cassian offers protection. Aria hears control. He wants her art, her eye, and her presence inside a world built on leverage, secrecy, and pressure. She wants creative freedom, the truth behind the attack, and a future no one can take from her again. The rules between them are clear on paper. The tension is anything but.

As Aria’s camera begins exposing the people and systems hiding behind polished glass, the danger around her sharpens. So does the pull between her and Cassian. Every negotiation turns personal. Every boundary matters. And with Lev Morozov circling—ready to weaponize fear, desire, and public ruin—one wrong move could cost Aria her work, her safety, and the control she refuses to surrender.

Crimson Hold is a dark, high-heat romance where power plays, obsession, and dangerous attraction collide—and the heroine at the center of it will not be owned.
