Mira Calloway has eleven dollars in her bank account and a mother who needs surgery she can't afford. So when billionaire CEO Damian Cole offers her a fake marriage, ninety days, a fortune, no strings, she signs before she lets herself think twice.
She's the third woman he's made this offer to. The first two are filed under one word: TERMINATED.
Thrown into a world of galas, cameras, and a media storm branding her "the third bride in one year," Mira starts pulling at threads Damian never meant for her to find, a locked room in his penthouse, a chemical plant fire from decades ago, a name that shouldn't mean anything to her and means everything. Her father didn't abandon her family the way she always believed. He died the night that plant burned. And Damian's father was standing right there when it happened.
Damian isn't just guarding a company. He's guarding a truth that's already cost two women everything, and the woman circling both of them, poised, precise, untouchable, isn't finished yet.
As the fake marriage starts becoming real, Mira has to decide how much of the truth she can survive knowing, and whether the man she's falling for is protecting her from his family's past, or protecting his family from her.
A slow-burn contract marriage romance wrapped around a betrayal that spans two generations, where every answer costs something, and every kiss is a risk neither of them can afford.
