Black Tie Violence

She came to Bangkok for a deal. She found a war.

Cyan St. James doesn't make mistakes. The Black American hospitality executive has spent four years rebuilding her career after a powerful man stole her work and used their affair to destroy her reputation. Now she's SVP at Aurelius Hotels, sent to close an acquisition that will cement her comeback.

She doesn't plan on Niran Wongchai.

He fights because it's the only honest thing left.

Thai billionaire. Muay Thai champion. The man they call the Chairman. Niran inherited an empire built on corruption and has spent eleven years trying to clean it. He doesn't let anyone close. Doesn't need anyone. Doesn't want the American executive who shows up at his fight and watches him break a man without flinching.

Then someone puts her in the wrong seat. His mother's seat. And Niran realizes they're both being played.
