Aurora Hale never believed billionaires existed outside magazine covers—cold men with perfect smiles and hearts made of stone. Then her little brother gets sick. Desperate to pay for Leo’s treatment, Aurora agrees to a contract marriage with Adrien Blackwood, the ruthless CEO of the Blackwood empire. The rules are simple: act like the perfect wife in public, stay out of his personal life, and never mistake the arrangement for something real. But living inside Adrien’s world is far more dangerous than Aurora expected. Behind his icy reputation is a man carrying scars he refuses to show anyone. A man who remembers Leo’s medication schedules, defends her without hesitation, and looks at her like she’s slowly becoming the one thing he can’t control. As fake moments begin to feel real, jealousy burns hotter, family secrets unravel, and the line between business and love disappears completely. Because the greatest mistake Aurora can make isn’t breaking the contract— It’s falling for the man who was never supposed to love her back.
