Harper Evans thinks her private engagement to Mason is the start of her happily ever after. Instead, she walks into their apartment and finds him in bed with her own sister. Heartbroken, Harper ends the engagement, only to discover Mason has been using their secrecy to quietly drain her savings, leaving her drowning in crippling debt.
With her life falling apart, Harper takes a chance on a confidential job listing. Silas Sterling, the powerful CEO of Sterling Financial, isn’t looking for an assistant. He needs a respectable, scandal-free wife for one year to secure his grandfather’s inheritance. In return, he offers her ten million dollars and absolute protection from her mounting troubles.
Harper agrees and moves into his penthouse. The rules are simple: maintain appearances in public and keep things strictly professional in private. But the closer the proxmity, the more attraction brews.
Weeks later, Harper discovers she is pregnant. And the timeline raises terrifying questions she isn’t ready to answer.
Afraid of losing everything, she tries to walk away from the arrangement. But Silas refuses to let her go. Whether the child is his or not, the ruthless billionaire is no longer willing to keep his distance. As hidden enemies begin to close in, secrets from the past threaten to destroy the fragile family they are trying to build.
