90 DAYS WITH BELLA.
Alexander Blackwood has never been one to bow to anyone’s expectations—except now, he must. His family insists he marry a woman he doesn’t know to satisfy an unusual arrangement. But the moment he meets Bella Harrington, the last person he expects—or wants—to be tied to, sparks fly.
Bella Harrington is fiercely independent and has her own reasons for agreeing to this sudden engagement: her family’s business is on the brink of bankruptcy, and this marriage could save them. She doesn’t know Alexander, and she certainly doesn’t want to be trapped in a situation orchestrated by adults who think they know what’s best.
From the first awkward dinner to the shocking revelation that they’ll be married for ninety days—with the promise of divorce if they can’t get along—Alexander and Bella clash at every turn. Sharp wit, stubborn pride, and a shared history neither of them fully remembers ignite a fire neither can ignore.
Forced into daily proximity, their battles of words, clever tricks, and teasing insults slowly give way to understanding, trust, and undeniable attraction. But can they navigate the walls of pride, old grudges, and family pressure in just ninety days—or will they part ways forever, convinced they can’t stand each other?
90 Days to with Bella is a steamy, witty enemies-to-lovers romance about pride, second chances, and the surprising ways love can find you when you least expect it.

Chapter: A Mother's Confession.BELLA’S POV.The smell of coffee was what finally coaxed me out of bed. I used to live alone in my apartment, the apartment wasn’t big and it wasn’t small either, it was enough for me. My parent has a whole big house but I decided to move out since I was in my miss independent era.I dragged myself downstairs, following the aroma until I reached the breakfast room. If you could call it a “room” ut was bigger than the entire café I used to study in during college. A long polished table stretched nearly the length of the hall, though only two places had been set one for me, one for… Alex’s mother, my mother in law.She sat at the head of the table, elegant as always, posture impossibly straight. Every inch of her radiated power, but not the cold kind Alex wore like armor. Hers was quieter, more refined, the kind you almost didn’t notice until you realized you were already under her gaze.“Good morning, Bella,” she said smoothly, her smile polite but not overly warm.“Good morning,” I re

Chapter: The Rules Of Us.ALEX’S POV.Her rules had been clear, sharp, and unyielding. I could respect that. At least she wasn’t pretending this was some fairytale. And mine? They’d landed exactly the way I wanted—cutting just enough to remind her this marriage wouldn’t be on her terms alone.She didn’t respond after my last jab. Just muttered something under her breath, snatched her silk robe, and disappeared into the bathroom.I leaned back against the headboard, running a hand through my hair. For years, I’d been surrounded by people who measured every word, weighed every smile. But Bella? She talked like she had nothing to lose. Like her mouth couldn’t keep up with her thoughts. Infuriating and oddly… refreshing.The sound of running water filled the suite, and I tried not to imagine her under it. Tried and failed.When she came out, steam clinging to her, hair damp and skin flushed from the heat, I realized for the hundredth time that day that I was in dangerous territory. Not because of her beauty. No, I

Chapter: RulesBella's POV.The ride back to the Blackwood estate was silent, thick with unspoken words. The driver’s eyes never flickered up, but I could feel the tension filling the car like smoke. My parents had kissed my cheeks at the reception, whispered things like be strong, make it work, we’re proud of you. Easy for them to say. They weren’t the ones moving into a stranger’s mansion as his legally bound wife.When the car pulled through the tall iron gates and up the long, winding driveway, I felt my stomach tighten. The Blackwood home wasn’t a house—it was an empire carved in stone. Towering walls, endless windows, and that suffocating sense of wealth that made you feel like even the air belonged to someone else. And tonight, that someone was me.We walked inside, his stride confident and unhurried, mine careful. The staff bowed slightly as we passed, eyes flicking to me with curiosity. I forced myself to keep my chin high. If they were expecting a timid new bride, they’d be sorely disappoi

Chapter: The Wedding Day.ALEX.I had promised myself I wouldn’t care.This wedding was nothing more than a transaction. A business strategy disguised as holy vows. Ninety days of playing husband before I’d be free again. I told myself it was temporary, meaningless, nothing worth a second thought.But then the chapel doors opened and Bella walked in. For a moment, I forgot every cynical thought I’d been rehearsing.She wasn’t wearing some glittering royal gown or drowning in diamonds the way most women of our world would’ve demanded, no. Her dress was simple, elegant ,soft satin that draped over her body like it had been created with her in mind alone. Her veil fell in gentle layers, but it couldn’t hide her face, mothing could.Her beauty was undeniable, but it wasn’t just that. It was the way she carried herself. Her chin lifted, shoulders squared, her stride graceful but firm. She wasn’t walking to me as a reluctant bride being forced into duty. She was walking like someone stepping into battle, daring anyo

Chapter: The Perfect Match.BELLA.Ninety days of living with Alexander Blackwood the man whose eyes burned with annoyance every time they landed on me, whose mouth seemed permanently fixed into that arrogant smirk.And then his father had dropped the final bomb like it was nothing.“The wedding will be this week,” he’d said, voice sharp with authority. “No delays and no excuses. Ninety days begin the moment vows are spoken.”I didn’t even remember nodding, but apparently I did. Alex scoffed beside me, muttering something under his breath that sounded suspiciously like ridiculous. For once, I agreed with him.By the time I got home, I was drained. My heels clicked against the marble floor of our entryway as I tossed my purse down, ready to disappear into my room and pretend the entire day had been a nightmare I could wake up from.Mom sat forward on the couch, her hands folded so tightly in her lap the knuckles were pale. Dad stood by the window, staring out as if the city lights might give him the right words.

Chapter: The Guest.ALEX.I adjusted the cuff of my sleeve for the third time, though it didn’t need fixing. The tie was already knotted perfectly, the suit pressed to precision, the shoes polished until I could see my reflection. Still, I fussed. Anything to keep my mind from dwelling on what tonight meant.I descended the marble staircase slowly, one hand trailing along the rail. My parents had spared no expense; the chandeliers glowed, the silverware gleamed, and a small army of staff flitted about preparing every detail. The whole house seemed to hold its breath.I took my place in the sitting room adjacent to the dining hall, waiting. My mother swept past me, pausing only long enough to give me a once-over.“Perfect,” she murmured approvingly. “Stand tall. Remember your smile.” I didn’t smile. I didn’t feel like smiling. How could I, when tonight I was about to meet the stranger they expected me to marry?I poured myself a drink from the sideboard, the amber liquid steadying my nerves. My father ent
