Brutal Billionaire

Thomas Crown was born into wealth but built an empire of his own. As CEO of the Crown family’s luxury hotel chain, he spends his life scouting the most exotic corners of the world. Ruthless in business, reserved in love—he’s sworn off the blue-blooded women of the Hamptons who want his name more than his heart.

Gaia Sanders never expected her brilliant but lonely life to lead here. Raised by globe-trotting academics, fluent in five languages, and with more degrees than most diplomats, she’s spent years assisting powerful men. But one wild night in Cairo changes everything—especially when the man who stole her heart turns out to be her new boss.

From the Sahara to the Alaskan wilderness, Thomas and Gaia are forced together—through storms, danger, and temptation. Their connection is undeniable. Their chemistry? Explosive.

But Gaia has no family, no safety net—and she refuses to be just another woman swallowed up by the Crown dynasty. And Thomas? He’s never risked his heart before.

When the Amazon River rises and Gaia’s life hangs in the balance, Thomas will have to decide: is she just another adventure…or the one woman who makes him believe in forever?
