BLURB: When her family fell into sudden financial ruin and her stepsister’s life hung in the balance, Rose Evelyn Hart was forced to make an impossible choice. Her once-prosperous father, James Hart, found himself bankrupt after a series of devastating losses, and with no one else to turn to, he sought help from his longtime business rival, Davis Blackwood, a ruthless billionaire known for his cold heart and calculating mind. But Davis didn’t offer his wealth out of kindness. He made his terms painfully clear: he would fund the life saving surgery, but in return, Rose must marry him. To Rose, it was a nightmare. She had always loathed Davis, the man who had mocked her family, destroyed her father’s empire, and humiliated her more than once. But with her stepsister’s life slipping away and no other options in sight, Rose sacrificed her freedom to save the one she loved. Now bound to a man she despises, trapped in a marriage forged from desperation rather than love, Rose must navigate a world of power, betrayal, and unwanted desire. But as secrets unravel and hidden motives come to light, Rose begins to wonder, is Davis truly the villain she believed him to be… or the only man capable of saving her in more ways than one?
