Steze Carter is 22, broke, and out of options. When her father is threatened with losing his job at Hayes Corporation, there’s only one way to save him: marry the boss’s son. Damien Hayes is the cold, ruthless heir of Hayes Corporation. He has everything — money, power, and a fiancée he actually loves. But his father gives him an ultimatum: _Marry Steze Carter, or lose your inheritance._ Neither of them wants this. After one awkward blind date, they get married in a week. On their first night, Damien lays down the rules: 1. *Don’t talk to me* 2. *Don’t enter my room without knocking* 3. *Don’t cook for me. This is a fake marriage* Steze agrees. She has a fiancé too. So they live like strangers under one roof. He sneaks out to see his fiancée. She sneaks out to see hers. No love. No talking. Just a contract and a signature. But fake marriages have a way of getting complicated. What happens when jealousy starts? When secrets come out? When the man who said "don’t fall for me" starts breaking his own rules? *A contract marriage. Two fiancés. One house. Zero feelings... right?*
