She needed money. He needed a wife. When Rose’s father’s debt falls on her, she has 30 days before loan sharks take her life. Desperate, she signs a contract she never read. James Sterling, the coldest billionaire in New York, just lost an heir. His grandfather’s will is clear: marry and produce an heir in 1 year, or lose a 5-billion-dollar empire. Rose is his perfect solution. Poor. Desperate. Disposable. But contracts don’t control hearts. He bought her body for 5 million dollars. He never expected to crave her soul. She sold her freedom to save her family. She never expected to fall for the man who ruined her. Now the deadline is close. The board is watching. And James realizes the one thing he can’t buy… is her love. *Will billions be enough when love costs him everything?*
