The Perfumer's Poisoned Letters

Kiyan Alaverdian, the quietly ruthless scion of a tech empire, has never forgotten his first love or the woman he blames for their ruin: Roksana Gevorkian. Armed with a trove of forged letters painting Roksana as a manipulative saboteur, he orchestrates the hostile takeover of her family's centuries-old perfume house, Parfums Gevorkian. His terms are simple and cruel: Roksana must work as his personal assistant, cataloging the slow, deliberate dismantling of her entire legacy. Trapped by a non-compete clause and bound to protect her family's loyal employees, Roksana has no choice but to accept. She resolves to beat Kiyan at his own game, fighting to save her heritage from the inside. But as their rivalry forces them into a tangled intimacy of shared projects and late nights, the lines between hate and fascination begin to blur. Kiyan finds himself drawn to the resilient, brilliant woman he swore to crush, while Roksana sees flicker of a man beyond the cold-hearted monster. But how can love bloom from the ashes of a revenge built on a devastating lie, especially when the person who lit the match is still whispering in Kiyan's ear?
