Sera Calloway was once the most popular girl in New York high society. But when her father is convicted of stealing money, her family is left homeless and shamed. She agrees to go to a secret charity dinner where women are sold as “dates” to billionaires because she wants to keep her mother and younger sister safe. But when the highest bidder is Cassian Wolfe, her father's sworn adversary and one of the city's most brutal men, she is forced into a strange deal: If she marries him for a year and gives him access to what is left of the Calloway name, he will protect her family from going completely bankrupt. Sera agrees, but she says she won't fall for him. Cassian accepts, but his only goal is revenge. But nothing is ever easy in a world full of lies, secrets, and luxury. What starts off as a contract quickly turns into passion. And what started as a trap could turn into the one thing neither of them saw coming: LOVE.
