Bound to the Hidden BillionaireThree years ago, Elara Sterling had everything: a legendary name and a father she adored. Then $340 million vanished, her father was framed and imprisoned, and her uncle Victor took the chairman's seat, weeping on the evening news. Now she's broke, keeping books in Hell's Kitchen, and watching her mother's pearls go under the hammer.The buyer is Damian Voss, the billionaire the press calls the Shark. His offer is outrageous: marry him. A twelve-month contract, a staged engagement, and a loophole in her grandfather's will that gives her the voting shares to challenge Victor. He gets her name and the legitimacy it brings. She gets his money, his lawyers, and a chance to take back everything she lost.The rules are simple. No love. No expectations. No lies about the thing that matters.But Damian is hiding the one secret that could destroy her. The man who ruined her family is the same man who shaped his. As the fake romance turns into stolen glances and public performances that feel dangerously real, Elara starts to see the man behind the mask, and Damian starts to wonder if he can finish what he began without losing her.The contract was supposed to be fake.The feelings won't be.
