Scott Foster
I had a plan, After cutting ties with my asshole of a father I was going to start a company of my own and prove to him that I wasn’t worthless. But what if things aren’t going as planned, worse of all I find myself in deep debt, I’m desperate and Valarie Blackrose might be my only way out
Never in my life did I think I’d stoop so low as to deceive someone like Valarie, but desperation changes everything
All morality flies out the window when a desperate father offers me a contract that could be the solution to all my problems, But there’s just one catch though, I have to marry his disabled daughter, keep her happy, and make sure she never finds out about the contract
Make her fall in love with me, marry her then divorce her with an excuse
It was supposed to be as simple as that"
But never had I expected I would end up falling in love with her, I got too greedy not for her wealth but for her love, now dark forces threaten to expose the very truth that could lead me to lose her
Will I be able to fight them all and get our happy ending or will our love end in tears and hatred
