When her father’s empire begins to collapse, Stacy Lawson the youngest CEO in the city steps into a world of ruthless power, lies, and survival. To save everything her father built, she must make a deal with the one man she swore she’d never trust. Ethan Blackwood. Cold. Brilliant. Dangerous. The billionaire CEO who built his empire by breaking others and now, he’s set his eyes on her. But Ethan doesn’t want her company. He wants control. He wants her. “Marry me, Stacy. One year. No love. No strings. You’ll wear my ring, play my wife, and when it’s over we walk away.” She should’ve said no. But desperation makes deals with the devil look tempting. Now, trapped in a marriage that blurs the line between hate and desire, Stacy finds herself falling for the man she was supposed to fight. He’s infuriatingly calm, impossibly confident, and every touch of his burns through her. “You wanted to save your company, sweetheart,” he murmured, tracing her jaw. “You didn’t read the fine print you’re mine now.” Behind the cameras are secrets, power plays, and a chemistry so intense it could ruin them both. He’s her enemy. She’s his weakness. And in a world where love is just another business deal… one wrong move could destroy them both. Because the only thing more dangerous than falling for Ethan Blackwood is thinking he might fall for her too.
