Blurb: Elena Hart’s life crumbled in twenty-four hours. Her secret relationship with her boss is weaponised against her. Her promotion is stolen. Her boss’s new fiancé humiliates her in front of the entire company and is if that wasn’t enough— she’s fired over fabricated evidence she can’t even fight because everything points at her credentials. With her father’s life hanging by a thread and her only hope to pay for his surgery stolen, Elena thinks she has reached the end of it all…until Alaric Carrington—and the last person she expected to see again offers her a deal almost bold to speak aloud: Marry me. Carry my child. I’ll save your father and restore your reputation…and give you the power to exact your revenge on Xavier. It’s insane, reckless, almost impossible. But Elena has run out of options —and yet real danger isn’t the contract. She is about the learn that some answers are worth any cost —her sister’s disappearance. And she’s ready to pay; either it could destroy her…or save her.
