She swore she'd never fall for a man like him. Too bad she already signed the contract. Ambitious attorney Sabine Sinclair is used to fighting her way to the top, not being boxed into a corner. But when her firm forces her into a high-profile merger, she's blindsided to discover her professional rival and personal nightmare. Rhys Blackwell is the one pulling the strings. Cold, brilliant, and unrelentingly obsessive, Rhys has waited years for this moment. Buried deep in the contract Sabine didn't write is a clause she never saw coming one that puts her directly under his control. Publicly, they're business partners. Privately, he wants more. As their dangerous game escalates behind closed doors, Sabine begins to question if the man she's always hated is the only one who's ever truly seen her. But Rhys didn't write the clause to win her trust. He wrote it to own her. The Binding Clause is a dark, emotionally charged enemies-to-lovers romance featuring a morally grey, obsessive hero, a fierce heroine, and a contract that binds more than just business. There's no escape when the clause is him.
