Contract For Friendship

Evelyn “Evie” Thorne is a gifted architect whose family business is one bad contract away from bankruptcy. Desperate, she seeks help from the one person she swore she’d never deal with again: Damon Rourke, the ruthless billionaire CEO of Rourke Industries—and the undisputed Alpha of the Silver Crescent Pack. Damon doesn’t offer a loan; he offers a deal: a highly detailed, non-negotiable marriage contract. Evie must become his wife, his ‘Luna’ in name only, for one year. The contract strictly forbids intimacy, requires public displays of affection, and demands absolute obedience. Evie agrees, believing she is only signing away her freedom. But the closer she gets to Damon, the more she realizes the contract is a thin shield against a primal attraction. Damon Rourke doesn’t just manage boardrooms—he commands a territory, and in his world of shifters, a contract can’t negate the terrifying, undeniable reality: They are Fated Mates. Evie is thrust into a world of pack politics, ancient enemies, and a dangerously alluring Alpha who is determined to keep his contract—and his mate—at arm’s length, even as their forced proximity threatens to shatter both their defenses.
