Matched To The Arrogant CEO

""I had three simple rules: absolute privacy, zero business interference, and no romantic expectations. My wife tore up every single one before the ink on our marriage license was even dry."

Ronak Mehta is Wall Street’s most feared predator, cold, calculating, and convinced that love is an emotional liability that makes intelligent men weak. When his grandfather forces him into an arranged marriage ultimatum to protect his company's voting trust, Ronak treats it like a routine acquisition: sign a one-year contract, maintain emotional distance, and walk away clean with his empire intact. Sidhika Rao has zero interest in becoming a billionaire’s decorative accessory. Fiercely independent and armed with a razor-sharp tongue, the luxury brand strategist refuses to bend to Ronak’s balance sheet or his icy corporate demands. If she has to play along to escape her family’s marriage pressures, she’ll do it entirely on her own terms, by dismantling his hyper-organized penthouse, trading venom for venom, and proving she is his intellectual equal in every single room. Trapped in close quarters across transatlantic private jets and glittering Manhattan galas, their strictly functional arrangement begins to combust. A single brush of skin shatters twelve years of calculated control. When corporate sabotage threatens to destroy Mehta Global and a ruthless competitor targets Sidhika, the Ice King discovers there is only one thing more dangerous than his ambition: The terrifying, possessive realization that he would burn the entire city to the ground to keep her safe. Their marriage was supposed to last 365 days. He just forgot to leave.
