One night in Vienna. One borrowed dress. One man who will stop at nothing to find the woman behind the mask.

I was never supposed to be on that guest list. A curator from Brixton doesn't belong in a Viennese ballroom, but for one midnight, I stepped into someone else's life. Behind a golden mask and a gown I could never afford, I wasn't Adaeze, the woman who plays it safe. I was a goddess.

Then I met Dominic.

He is everything a woman over forty knows to avoid: powerful, arrogant, and devastatingly persistent. He didn't just dance with me; he claimed the air in my lungs. In the shadows of the balcony, his hands made promises that my real life could never keep. I left him with nothing but a lingering scent and a memory-because by midnight, the mask had to come off.

Now, the fantasy is colliding with my reality:

The Pursuit: Dominic is a man who always gets what he wants, and he wants the woman from the ball.

The Secret: He doesn't realize the professional curator he just hired is the same woman he tasted in the dark.

The Heat: Every time we lock eyes across a boardroom table, the professional distance I've built starts to melt.

He's looking for a phantom, but the fire between us is very real. If I let him see the woman beneath the mask, I risk my career and my heart. But the way he looks at me makes me wonder if being the "wrong" wife is the only thing that feels right.
