It was supposed to be just a deal. Mandy would pretend to be Landon’s devoted fiancée. In exchange, the powerful alpha would give her everything she needed—security, shelter, and satisfaction between the sheets. No emotions. No complications. Just play the part and keep things simple. But the lines start to blur the moment Mandy steps into Landon’s world. The way the alpha touches her, looks at her, and protects her—none of it feels fake. And that’s the most dangerous part. Because Mandy knows she's not the kind of omega Landon should want. She’s damaged, used to surviving rather than dreaming. Falling for Landon? That was never part of the plan. Now Mandy has a choice: walk away with her heart intact or risk everything for a love that was never supposed to be real. *** Note: This is a non-shifter omegaverse steamy romance book.

“If you were the last man on earth and I needed to be saved, I would rather die than let you touch me.” I screamed in his face, my husband. The name still sounded bitter on my tongue.

***The cover is taken from Google*** I wince when my bangles dig into my skin,forcing a smile,hoping my boredom didn't show in my movements.
