The Jealousy Clause

The contract is over. His obsession is not.

Audrey Lennox-Dane is no longer a temporary wife or a woman fighting to reclaim what was taken from her. She owns the Lennox Hotel, leads a powerful new restoration firm, and has the heart of the most ruthless billionaire in the city.

Now she has to prove none of it was handed to her.

As the first anniversary of their scandalous marriage approaches, Lennox-Dane Historic Restoration faces its first major test. The Griffin Building could establish Audrey as a force in her own right, but a governance review places every decision under scrutiny. To the public, she is still the woman who married Harrison Dane for a hotel. To the board, her authority may be nothing more than a reward from an obsessed husband.

Audrey refuses to let Harrison fight this battle for her.

Harrison promised transparency, partnership, and freedom. But watching his wife build a life beyond his control awakens a jealousy he can no longer disguise as protection. He trusts Audrey completely. What he cannot tolerate is a world that keeps demanding her time, her attention, and the parts of her she once gave only to him.

The harder Audrey fights to prove she does not need him, the more Harrison fears she is creating a future without him. The harder he tries to remain essential, the closer he comes to destroying the equality that made their marriage real.

They survived the bargain that brought them together.

Now they must decide whether love can survive without ownership.

A dark, steamy billionaire romance featuring an established marriage, a jealous and possessive husband, a powerful heroine, public scrutiny, private obsession, workplace tension, emotional vulnerability, and a love that has outgrown every rule.
