Bain and Gia met in Sizzling Strip, a pub along Times Square where Gia works. Bain is hunting for the perfect woman to propose a deal to—be his girlfriend and convince his mother he is in love with another woman so she will help extricate him from an arranged engagement with a socialite he wanted to back out of. Gia can’t believe the exorbitant fee she is going to get paid with, until he informed her there will be—possibly—a marriage contract should it come to it. And the reason she was qualified for the job? Not only did he like her, he feels she is attracted to him, too. But Gia has important reasons to accept the proposal--her mother has cancer and needed money for treatment, they're going to lose their house and her nanny, and she is a semester away from graduating college. It isn't like it’s going to be hard pretending to be the girlfriend of a wealthy, hot and sexy businessman. So the contract is signed and all and she is set to follow her boyfriend to Texas to start the game and meet with his mother. Whatever else could go wrong?

Suzy’s life changed because of an unexpected event—one that caused a life to be lost. She was once a young woman filled with love, finding comfort in the warmth of her neighbor and in Alexander, the grandson who had returned from America. What started as simple, innocent admiration slowly ignited like fire, growing into something deeper. But all of it was taken from her because of a single incident. Now, Suzy lives haunted by memories she cannot escape. The warmth in Alexander is gone, replaced by cold hatred. In his eyes, she is the reason a life was lost. Desperate for forgiveness, she kneels before him—unaware that it is the wrong move. Alexander wanted to marry her, not to love or cherish her, but to slowly destroy her and she agreed, thirsty for forgiveness and love. After claiming her in a moment of weakness, he leaves for America—returning to the woman he truly loves. She thought she could endure everything. Until she discovered that another life was growing inside her. Terrified that her child would grow up surrounded by hatred… afraid that the little one would suffer for sins it did not commit, Suzy makes a heartbreaking choice. She runs. Because sometimes loving someone means protecting them— Even if it means disappearing from the man she loves.

My sister-in-law, Sabine Vire, deliberately swapped my prenatal medication with abortion pills. As a result, my eight-month-old baby was gone. As I cried until I nearly collapsed from grief, my husband, Cassian Thorne, held me tightly and murmured, "Don’t worry. You’ll have another child." Three months later, I became pregnant again—this time with triplets. Overwhelmed with joy, I was just about to share the wonderful news with Cassian when I overheard a conversation between him and his friends. "All five of you didn’t use protection, right? I want to see how many brats her belly can carry. The wager is $50 million." "I bet three." "I bet one." Cassian burst into laughter. "If we’re betting, then we’re going big. I bet six. Who told her to slap my precious Sabine? If she can pop out a few brats to make Sabine happy, that’s her blessing." Sabine, the very woman who had fed me the abortion pills, was Cassian's beloved.
