Iridescent by Ynelle Lovallo

She is his gravity. He is her midnight sun. One truth could eclipse them both.
Yara Navarro built her life on surviving.

In the ring, pain used to be simple. There were rules. A hit landed, and she learned how to take it. But nothing prepared her for the fight her own body would become, or the grief of wanting the one thing even Xavier Navarro’s billions could not buy.

For years, she thought grief would be the hardest thing their marriage would have to survive.

She was wrong.
To the world, Xavier Navarro is polished, powerful, and impossible to touch. A self-made billionaire who built his empire far from the family that tried to control him. To Yara, he is her husband. Her safest place. Her midnight sun.

The only man she has ever trusted without hesitation.
Until one dinner at the Navarro estate changes everything.

A truth he should have told her long ago. A secret that reaches into the most vulnerable parts of her life. A betrayal that makes her question whether the future she has been aching for was ever truly hers to claim.
Yara leaves.

Xavier has kept his wife insulated from the worst parts of his world. He can withstand pressure. Scandal. Blackmail. The family that has spent a lifetime trying to drag him back under its control.
But he cannot withstand a life without her.

Now, with the past clawing its way into the light and his family closing ranks, Xavier is no longer fighting to protect the empire he built. He is fighting for the woman he failed.
And if earning Yara back means burning his world down to the bones, he will hand her the match himself.

Iridescent is an angsty, emotionally charged dark contemporary romance with no cheating and a hard-earned HEA. Intended for mature readers. Please check content warnings before reading.
