EXCERPT
“It was hard to focus when his palm teased my folds, circling my cl*t until I could barely breathe.

‘Why would you want to leave this behind?’ he growled in my ear, his chest rumbling against my back.

‘Because it’s cruel,’ I whispered.

And then he pulled away, leaving me trembling, desperate, and furious.”

“What are we to do, mum?” His sister asked.

I promised her father I would protect her.

Lizzie Foster was never meant to be mine.
She was the spoiled mafia princess I was ordered to guard… the daughter of my dying best friend… and the young woman already promised to another man.

My duty was simple: keep her safe until her wedding day.

Then her fiancé betrayed her.
And the only way to protect her was to do the unthinkable—

marry her myself.

Now Lizzie is living under my roof, wearing my ring, carrying my name… and testing every last ounce of the control I’ve built my life on.

She wants a real marriage.
Not a cold arrangement. Not a contract signed out of necessity.

She was my best friend’s daughter.
Too young. Too forbidden. Too innocent for a man like me.

But Lizzie is mine now.

And I’m not sure if I’m protecting her from the brutality of our world…
or from the darkness inside me.

My best friend Tiffany was obsessed with those novels where a mafia don spoils his woman rotten.

She was convinced she was the type of girl who could make a ruthless boss go soft, so she went after Vincent, the heir of a crime family, and got him.

His bodyguards, his dirty money, even the way he told her not to ask questions and just sit tight. She read all of it as devotion. And of course she had to drag me into it too, always with the same excuse: it was for my own good.

Last time around, her mess got me killed. Vincent's enemies mistook me for one of his people, and I died in a shootout that had nothing to do with me.

The second the blade opened my throat, all I could think about was her holding up a bloody knife, grinning, showing it off to me like a trophy.

"Margot, look. He gave me this. It means we're official now."

I remember feeling disgusted. I never thought that same knife would end up slitting my throat.

Blood pooled across the street while she hid in Vincent's arms, screaming, hands over her eyes. Later I heard her crying to someone, saying it wasn't her fault, that I just had bad luck.

I died inside her little romance fantasy. A nobody side character, wiped off the page without a second thought.

" If you think you can pin someone else’s child on me ..." Drake smirked as he turns towards Sarah who was beginning to shed tears

" I didn't do this on my own Drake,I came here for the money." tears flowed down her eyes , there was no way Drake was accepting her child after the incident with his best friend last night and now he wouldn’t let her explain.

" I will wire the rest of your balance to your account in the morning, I am sorry Sarah you have to pack your things and leave now ."

" At least hear me out ." Sarah managed to stand up in tears . " This baby ...."
“ this contract is over” He cut her off before she could finish

Every seconds playing as his pretend wife draws her closer to the billionaire playboy who might again break her heart.

She signed the contract for one year.
No love. No promises. No heartbreak.

Aria Cole thought a marriage of convenience to billionaire heir Luca Moretti would be the cleanest deal of her life. A year of flawless smiles, gilded halls, and carefully spoken vows… then freedom.

She was wrong. Behind the polished champagne toasts and perfect public performances, secrets move like shadows through the Moretti empire. Forced into the same glittering world, the strangers begin to blur into something far more dangerous than husband and wife. Touches linger too long. Glances burn too hot. And Aria starts to realize the truth she was never meant to see—
She was never chosen by chance.
Hidden clauses in the contract threaten to destroy everything she is. And Luca, the man who swore this marriage would remain a cold transaction, finds himself breaking every rule he ever made for the woman he never planned to want.
In a world where marriage is currency and loyalty is a weapon, love is the ultimate betrayal…and the one risk neither of them can afford.

“Can you kiss me?”

“No, you are a married woman and you deserve my respect if not for anything then for that tag,”

“You also see me as dirty, you should be man enough to let me know,” she cried.

Being the First Lady should mean being happy and having everything at your beck and call but to Alma, it was far from that. She was stuck in a marriage that to the public looked like the perfect marriage but to her, it was filled with pain, hate, betrayal, and nothing close to happiness.

In the glittering skyline of Chicago, where fortunes rise as fast as they fall, Laura Castillo has made a career out of heartbreak—literally. As a professional bride, she’s survived by marrying desperate men for money, selling illusions of love with a flawless smile and a perfectly tailored dress. But behind the practiced charm is a woman drowning in emotional debts, haunted by a dying father’s final wish and a parasitic mother’s relentless demands.

When Andy Hayes, billionaire heir to the Hayes empire, offers Laura a six-month marriage contract to secure his inheritance, it seems like just another cold transaction. But Andy is nothing like her previous clients—he’s sharp, dominant, devastatingly attractive, and infuriatingly perceptive. He sees the cracks beneath Laura’s mask. And he’s hiding battle scars of his own.

Their arrangement requires total discretion, shared living space, and a convincing performance for the press. But as cohabitation turns into chemistry, and chemistry ignites into something deeper, both Laura and Andy begin to lose control of a game they thought they’d mastered. Secrets surface. Ghosts from Laura’s past claw back for revenge. And the contract binding them begins to feel a lot like fate.

I stepped into the room and he smiled at me.

That was my first warning.

Rowan Vaughn hadn’t smiled at me like that in years. Not since the cheating. Not since the Cold War between us began.

"Hi," he said, like I was a stranger.

And just like that, I knew.

He didn’t remember.

Not the marriage. Not the fights. Not the night I begged him to sign the divorce papers.

But then she walked in, Gigi.

And he remembered her.

I stood there, invisible again, while he held her hand and called her name.

He remembered the woman he almost left me for.

But not me...his wife.

Now I wish I had let him die in that operating room.

The day my doctor hinted I had very little time left to live, I decided the rules no longer applied to me. I was going to live my final weeks with zero filters and absolutely zero fear.

What I didn't plan on was getting accidentally kidnapped exactly ten minutes later.

That's how I ended up in the immaculate office of Lorenzo, the city's most feared mafia boss. A man with perfectly tailored suits, a freezing glare, an absolute phobia of germs... and a looming ultimatum from his father: find a wife immediately, or lose his seat in "the family". His men had strict orders to bring him the ideal candidate for a fake marriage, but thanks to their combined room-temperature IQ, they dragged me in instead.

To Lorenzo, I'm a necessary headache. To me, marrying a disgustingly handsome, hyper-controlling mob boss is just one more wild adventure to cross off my bucket list.

The deal is simple: I play the role of his perfect other half in front of his enemies, and he lets me do whatever the hell I want.

Everything seems perfectly under control. Except for one tiny, microscopic detail: surviving underworld shootouts turns out to be way easier than not falling for the man I drive absolutely insane every single day by eating greasy takeout on his custom Italian sofa.

They say love is dangerous. But suddenly, I'm getting a terrible, burning desire to survive.
