"Say that again, and it'll be the last thing you ever say" Elena Voss buried her fiancé three years ago or so she thought. When Damien Cross returns from the dead to claim her as his bride, she tells herself the cold stranger wearing his face is just a man changed by trauma. But the scar that vanished from his wrist, the laugh that no longer sounds like his, the way he flinches at their private jokes all points to one impossible truth the man she's marrying isn't Damien at all. He's the twin brother who killed him. Now Elena is trapped in a marriage to her fiancé's murderer, the only person alive who can expose him and the only person he can't bring himself to destroy. As his obsession with her deepens into something dangerously close to love, and his empire's secrets close in around them both, Elena must decide expose the truth and risk everything, or fall for the very man who stole her future.

BLURB: “You’re mine for the next nine months, Elena. No escapes. No exceptions.” His voice was ice, but his touch burned like fire as he pinned her against the marble wall of his mansion. Elena Voss never imagined selling her body to save her brother’s life. But when desperation leads her to sign Alexander Draven’s surrogacy contract, she steps into a world of ruthless power, forced proximity, and dangerous secrets. The cold billionaire sees her only as a vessel until her kindness cracks his frozen heart. As passion ignites behind closed doors and hidden truths surface, old betrayals threaten to destroy them both. With a jealous ex, a family conspiracy, and shocking revelations at every turn, Elena must decide if their contract can become something real… or if the billionaire who owns her body will shatter her soul forever.
