Controlling who talks to me. Calling me like he already owns me. The worst part? The fake relationship doesn’t feel fake anymore. Because behind his cruel smirk and bloodstained knuckles is a broken boy hiding dangerous secrets… secrets that somehow pull me closer instead of pushing me away. But Kane has enemies.

When brilliant architectural restorer Maya Vance inherits a crippling $5 million underground syndicate debt after her father’s death, she is left with an impossible choice: pay the money she doesn't have, or let the ruthless collectors harvest her chronically ill younger sister’s organs. Enter Julian Sterling. Cold, calculating, and dangerously powerful, the billionaire CEO of Sterling Global needs a wife to fulfill a trust stipulation and inherit his grandfather’s empire before his thirtieth birthday. He offers Maya a lifeline: sign a two-year marriage contract, move into his fortress-like estate, and play the role of his compliant, invisible bride. In exchange, her debt is erased, and her sister receives world-class medical care. Maya signs, believing she is nothing more than a pawn in a billionaire’s corporate war. But Maya is wrong.

He didn't buy her debt to use her; he bought her debt to trap her in his world, terrified that if she knew his true, dark obsession, she would run. But Julian’s dangerous stepmother has discovered his weakness. When a coordinated attack shatters their fragile arrangement and Maya’s sister is taken hostage, the icy billionaire must drop his corporate mask and unleash a terrifying, scorched-earth war to protect the woman he loves. He needed a contract to keep her. Now, he’ll burn the world down to save her.
