She came to Los Angeles to build a future. He came to claim it. Isabella Ferreira is an architect who designs structures that withstand earthquakes, fires, and the weight of memory. After fleeing São Paulo with nothing but grief and ambition, she has built a name for herself in a city that devours dreamers. She does not break. She does not bend. She certainly does not fall for men like Mateo Ángel Cortés. Mateo is a billionaire whose family empire was forged in concrete and blood. He is possessive, obsessive, and utterly unapologetic. When he walks into Isabella’s presentation and steals her building permit with a single word, she knows she should walk away. Instead, she signs a contract that binds them in ways neither of them understands. Exclusive access. Discretion. Availability. Three rules that turn into something far more dangerous than either of them intended. Their arrangement is a masterpiece of control until the cracks begin to show. An ex‑fiancée with a grudge. A father who sees Isabella as a threat to his legacy. And a secret from Isabella’s past that refuses to stay buried. In a city built on illusions, Isabella and Mateo will discover that the most fragile structure of all is the human heart. And that some loves are not meant to be designed they are meant to be survived. The City of Angels is the first volume in a sweeping saga of ambition, obsession, and the architecture of desire. What comes next will reshape everything they thought they knew. …more
