Sebastian Hale is a ruthless billionaire with no room for love. Scarred by the past and bound by control, he rules Hale Corporation with an iron hand—until his father’s will demands the one thing he refuses to give: marriage or lose everything to his scheming half-brother. Refusing romance, Sebastian designs a brutal solution: women sign a contract to survive one month as his girlfriend. Whoever lasts becomes his wife. Temporarily. No one ever does. Kimberly Jordan never planned to sign her life away. But when desperation leaves her with no choice, she agrees to a contract that binds her to a man who fears women and emotions alike. What begins as business slowly unravels into something far more dangerous. Because some contracts aren’t meant to be broken… …and some are never meant to end.
