By Jackie Ashenden

On Sale: 7/28/2026
A blackmail bride, marriage of convenience, Greek billionaire romance by Jackie Ashenden.

With this ring…
he must marry!

Tech billionaire Archimedes Athineos faces an ultimatum from his conniving foster father: jail or marriage. He won’t let his checkered past destroy his billion-dollar empire. Furiously, he chooses to wed. Yet wrath wars with desire when in walks his blackmail bride—foster sister Zoe Hargreaves…

The money Zoe gets for saying “I do” is her ticket to freedom, but Archimedes is the last Greek she wants as a husband. He abandoned her to their difficult childhood and she won’t trust him again. Only remaining indifferent to the touch she’s craved for fifteen years is…impossible!

Biography

Jackie writes dark, emotional stories with alpha heroes who’ve just got the world to their liking only to have it blown wide apart by their kick-ass heroines.

She lives in Auckland, New Zealand, with her husband the inimitable Dr Jax and two kids. When she’s not torturing alpha males, she can be found drinking chocolate martinis, reading anything she can lay her hands on, wasting time on social media, or forced to mountain biking with her husband.
