When Julian, a former soldier turned obstetrics nurse, is set up on a blind date, he doesn’t expect much. After all, his job and past have always made relationships difficult. But when he arrives and meets Astrid—a striking, elegant woman with a clever sense of humor—he feels an instant spark. The only twist? Astrid isn’t his date. Mistaken identities bring them together, and soon Astrid shares a surprising secret: to inherit her family’s fortune, she needs a husband, fast.
Julian agrees to be her contract husband, thinking it’ll be a simple arrangement. But as they navigate family expectations, stolen glances, and quiet laughter, their feelings grow deeper. What happens when Julian is framed for murder? Will Astrid get her inheritance? Will they take a chance on love or let it slip away?
