BLURB: "Sign the contract, or watch her die." When Ivy’s sister is left clinging to life after a mysterious hit-and-run, the hospital bill is a death sentence she can’t afford. Then Sebastian Wolfe, cold, rich, and impossibly dangerous, appears with an offer that isn’t really an offer at all. One year as his wife. In name to the world. In body and soul to him… and his three equally ruthless business partners. Trapped by ink on paper and bound by rules that strip away her freedom, Ivy swears she’ll survive long enough to escape and maybe destroy the man who caged her. But Sebastian has been watching her for far longer than she knows. And in his world, every move is a trap… and every trap is designed to break her. A contract signed in blood. A marriage built on power. Four men who try to assert their dominance on one woman. It is a game, and a game Ivy can’t afford to lose.
