LOGINIn a single night, Ivy Laurent’s life falls apart. Her boyfriend betrays her. Her family exposes her as an illegitimate child. Then they banish her to a remote place that feels like a permanent exile. She thinks that’s the end of everything—until she finds a dying man: Kael Montenegro. A deal is made to help Kael recover his memories. It’s only temporary. No feelings involved. There’s just one problem—Kael has amnesia. And Ivy has to explain their relationship. The only idea she comes up with? She’s his wife. Playing the role of a fake wife turns out to be far more dangerous than any betrayal she’s endured. Aggressive, possessive, and full of secrets, Kael slowly tears down Ivy’s defenses. She falls for a man who doesn’t even know who he really is. When Kael’s true identity comes to light, Ivy knows better than to hope for more. But just as she chooses to walk away, Kael decides to fight for her—even as his memories return and the truth about his past threatens to destroy them both.
View MoreI was still sitting on the edge of the bed, pressing a hand against my forehead. The pain was slowly subsiding, but the words of the man in my memory continued to echo in my mind. The pieces of the puzzle in my head still hadn't completely fallen into place.The heir to this family.What did he mean?I didn't even know who my family really was.Yet there was one thing that confused me more than anything. Why didn't I have a single memory connected to Ivy? Why hadn't that woman's face appeared in my memories?I slowly got to my feet and walked out onto the balcony, simply taking in the view of the beach spread out before me. Today and for the next seven days, I would be spending time with Ivy. At the very least, it might help clear both our minds.I hoped.The sound of the door opening made me turn around. Ivy appeared, carrying several bags of food and some medicine. She smiled at me.“I bought you some medicine, but you need to eat first before you take it,” she said, then sat down i
“Why would you ask that, Kael?” Ivy’s voice rose, catching me slightly off guard. Her swollen eyes made it obvious that she still hadn’t been able to move on from Jason.What could possibly make her this devastated over Jason? She had me now.“Why? You should already have the answer to that!” I stepped forward and crouched in front of her, taking both of her hands.“Ivy, can’t you let go of Jason? Is that why you’re still keeping his picture in our closet?”“Kael, I’ve already moved on from Jason.”“But you’re crying over him, Ivy!” I said, squeezing her fingers. “If you’ve really moved on, then how could you still cry like this?”Ivy’s eyes widened. The light in them dimmed. Her parted lips slowly closed, unable to form an answer.She lowered her gaze to our intertwined fingers.“Ivy, forget Jason. You have me now. Your husband.”God, I couldn’t believe I had just said that. I knew Ivy was still afraid of me. My past behavior had already made her distance herself from me, and now I w
I could hear Jason breathing on the other end of the line. Silence stretched between us for several seconds.“Husband?” he repeated, sounding incredulous.“Yes. Do you have a problem with that?” I asked sharply. My grip tightened around the phone.“No,” Jason stammered. “I just... I didn’t know Ivy was married,” he admitted, leaving me silent for several seconds. Ivy had really kept our relationship a secret from other people, but something about it still nagged at me.If she really didn’t want anyone to know about our marriage, then why was she still keeping Jason’s photo?I didn’t know.“She didn’t feel the need to tell you.” My voice came out colder than it should have. I didn’t even know why I was so angry. Jason was nothing more than Ivy’s ex-boyfriend. Nothing else.“I need to talk to Ivy now.”“Didn’t I already tell you? She’s asleep!” I pressed.Jason was silent for a moment. His breath came out heavily. “Then wake her up. Ivy isn’t difficult to wake when she’s asleep. She can
I pulled back slightly, giving Ivy enough space to breathe. My eyes roamed over her flushed face, her swollen, wet lips, and the reddish mark on her neck. Before I knew it, a satisfied smile tugged at my lips as I took in how disheveled she looked beneath me.Honestly, deep down, I wanted to make her even more disheveled. But I knew Ivy was still trembling whenever I touched her.“I need to make dinner,” she said, avoiding my gaze.“Yeah, use that excuse to get away from me again.”“I’m not making excuses. I really do want to cook,” Ivy denied.My thumb brushed over her flushed cheek before sliding beneath her lower lip. “All right. Want me to help you cook?”“No!” She answered much faster than I expected. “I can do it myself,” she added, quickly getting out of bed and hurrying away from me. She practically ran.As soon as the bedroom door closed, I lay back on the bed and let out a long breath. Damn, the pressure down there was almost unbearable. Without thinking, I rubbed the part o
