A Marriage Contract. A Life-Changing Inheritance. A Heart-Shattering Betrayal.
When Amelia Thompson signed that marriage contract, she never knew her arranged husband was an FBI undercover agent.
Ethan Black approached her to investigate Viktor Group—the corrupt corporation where her late mother worked, now drowning in money laundering scandals. 
To him, Amelia was just another lead, possibly the conspirator's daughter he was sworn to destroy.
But three months of pretending to be her husband changed everything. Her genuine warmth, stubborn kindness, and fierce independence slowly dismantled every rational defense he'd built around his heart. He should have walked away, yet found himself falling deeper in love—
Until the day she vanished, and he realized his love had become his greatest weakness.
Three years later, she returns with their child, seeking the truth about her mother’s death.
And he's no longer just an FBI agent, but a man desperate to win her back.
This time, he won't let her slip away.
But can love survive the ultimate deception?
