Karen:
My family is drowning in debt, and desperation leaves me with no choice. When billionaire Damien Steele offers me a deal that could save us, I know I should say no. But for me it's not an option.

Damien:
I need a wife—fast.

Without one, my inheritance slips through my fingers.

Karen seems perfect: desperate, easy to control, and just greedy enough to play along. For me, this is a game. No strings, no feelings, just a transaction.

Or so I thought.

What starts as a cold bargain ignites into something neither of us expected. But the deeper I fall, the higher the stakes climb—and the price of this marriage may be more than either of us can afford.
