Naomi Catherine devoted ten years of her life to Liam Claude, sacrificing her dreams, dignity, and heart to build his fame—only to be cast aside like she was nothing. Betrayed, humiliated, and left with nowhere to turn, she believed she had reached the lowest point of her life. Until her stepfather sold her to Lucius Ravenwood. A ruthless and enigmatic CEO, Lucius had no interest in love—only in securing a wife to silence his family’s relentless demands. Catherine needed an escape, a way to reclaim the life that had been stolen from her. The arrangement was simple: one year, no emotions, no complications. But from the moment their worlds collided, the boundaries blurred. Beneath Lucius’s icy exterior lay secrets as dark as her own, and Catherine soon realized that escaping her past wouldn’t be as easy as signing a contract. When old betrayals resurface and past lovers return with dangerous intentions, Catherine and Lucius find themselves trapped in a battle far more treacherous than they had ever anticipated. What began as a cold transaction turns into a struggle for control, survival, and something neither of them expected—longing. Because love was never part of the deal. But now? It might be their only chance at salvation. A high-stakes romance brimming with passion, power, and deception—where the line between love and obsession is razor-thin, and surrendering to the wrong desire could mean losing everything.
