Benton & Hart, founded by San Diego based author Lucie Benton, publishes raw emotional fiction.
KING OF AI: Enemies to LOVERS ROMANCE
I should be planning my wedding.
Instead, I'm falling for the man who came to take everything from me.
Alex Sorrin doesn't believe in fate.
He believes in revenge.
And from the moment he looks at me, I can feel it, the quiet certainty that I'm already part of his plan.
He is brilliant. Calculating.
The elusive billionaire the tech world calls the King of AI.
The kind of man who builds empires in silence... and ruins people just as easily.
Now my company is slipping out of my control.
My engagement is unraveling in front of the world.
And the only man who truly understands me is the one I was never supposed to trust.
I should be afraid of him. But it's not Alex's power that terrifies me. It's how safe I feel in his arms... when I promised my future to someone else.
KING OF AI is a standalone dark, emotional slow-burn enemies-to-lovers billionaire romance.
A story of forbidden attraction, corporate rivalry, family betrayal, and a love powerful enough to heal even the deepest wounds.
