Married to my Ex's Billionaire Father
Maya Carter thought the worst thing a bride could experience was being abandoned at the altar.
She was wrong.
Hours before her wedding, Maya catches her fiancé, Ethan Bennett, in bed with Vanessa Reed, her best friend and maid of honor. Instead of begging for forgiveness, Ethan humiliates her and makes one thing painfully clear. He never believed she was good enough to become a Bennett.
Heartbroken and furious, Maya walks away from the wedding and straight into Damon Bennett, Ethan’s ruthless, arrogant billionaire father.
One reckless night changes everything.
Maya wakes the next morning married to the last man she should ever want.
Her ex-fiancé’s father.
What begins as a flash marriage fueled by betrayal soon becomes something neither Maya nor Damon expected. Behind the cold CEO’s commanding exterior is a man who seems to understand Maya better than Ethan ever did.
But Damon is hiding something.
Their meeting was not their first.
He knew Maya years before she met his son.
And when Ethan decides he wants his former fiancée back, Vanessa sets her sights on destroying Maya, and secrets connecting Maya’s late father to the Bennett family begin surfacing, Maya faces a terrifying question.
Did Damon marry her because he loves her?
Or has she become part of a plan that started years before she ever became Mrs. Bennett?
