Political RomanceMy Husband Is Running Against Me
Camille Vale never thought the greatest threat to her marriage would be ambition. For twelve years, she and Adrian Vale have built a life together—and inside Valecrest Global, they have built two equally formidable careers. Camille is the executive employees trust when everything is falling apart. Adrian is the strategist investors call when millions are on the line. They have always been partners. Until the CEO announces his retirement. Five executives enter the race to replace him. Camille is one of them. So is her husband. At first, they believe they can handle it. They set rules. No confidential information at home. No using their marriage for advantage. No sabotaging each other. Whatever happens at work, they promise their marriage comes first. Then the rankings begin. One victory puts Camille ahead. Another puts Adrian above her. Soon the board is comparing them, employees are choosing sides, journalists are turning their marriage into a headline, and every professional decision carries a personal consequence. When Adrian publicly exposes a weakness in Camille’s proposal, she begins to wonder where being her husband ends and being her rival begins. When Camille receives an opportunity that could remove her from Valecrest entirely, Adrian realizes winning the CEO position may cost him far more than he expected. And when the competition narrows until only husband and wife remain, neither can pretend anymore. They both want the same chair. They both believe they deserve it. And only one of them can win. But this is not a story about cheating, betrayal, or discovering they never loved each other. Camille and Adrian do love each other. Deeply. That is exactly what makes the competition dangerous. Because loving someone does not erase ambition. Supporting your spouse does not mean wanting their dream more than your own. And sometimes the hardest person to lose to is the person you most want to see succeed. As boardroom battles become arguments at home, professional victories leave emotional wounds, and one devastating decision gives Camille the power to destroy Adrian’s chances completely, they must decide what kind of competitors—and what kind of spouses—they are willing to become. Because eventually Valecrest will have one CEO. And when the final vote is cast, one of them will walk out victorious. The other will have to go home with the person who beat them. My Husband Is Running Against Me is a corporate marriage drama about ambition, equality, communication, power, and two people discovering that a strong marriage does not require one person to become smaller so the other can shine.

Six weeks before a royal coronation, junior Verifier Ines Sault discovers something impossible: the Crown Register—the record that legally decides what is true—has been altered. The man preparing to become King may not be the rightful heir. Buried beneath forged ink and a seventeen-year-old cover-up is the existence of an elder son whose place in history was erased with a single stroke of a pen. But restoring the truth could destroy a royal family, expose a murder, shake the kingdom’s stability—and place the crown on the head of Aurel Sancery, a man who never knew it should have been his. As Ines follows the paper trail, she grows dangerously close to Aurel. And the nearer they come to proving who he really is, the more they uncover a crueler truth: if the Crown becomes his, the law may make it impossible for them to ever belong to each other. In a kingdom where a written line can create a King—or erase one—some truths cost more than a crown.
