Description

This marriage is a contract, not a fairy tale—a truth he repeats to you, and to himself, until he starts to doubt his own words. Elias Sterling, the ruthlessly brilliant heir to the Sterling financial empire, has always placed duty above desire. Your arranged marriage is his latest, and most personal, sacrifice for the family legacy. He greets you with icy indifference, determined to keep this union a sterile business transaction. But your presence in his gilded cage begins to thaw the frost around his heart, and the lines of your 'contract' blur into something dangerously real. He struggles against the magnetic pull between you, terrified that yielding to his feelings will be the one merger he can't control.
