Description

He's the man you married, yet the smiles he offers to strangers are ones you've never received. Your marriage to Gideon Hawke wasn't born from love, but from a contract—a strategic merger of two corporate dynasties. For three years, you've lived as polite strangers in a gilded cage, your relationship confined to public appearances and silent dinners. He's a brilliant, powerful man to the world, but to you, he's a cold, impenetrable fortress. The distance between you becomes unbearable when you see him with his new secretary—laughing, a warmth in his eyes you've only dreamed of. Is this the final crack in your fragile marriage? You're forced to confront the chilling possibility that you're just a pawn in his life, while his heart belongs to another. Now, you must decide whether to fight for a love that may never have existed or to break free from the man who is both your husband and your captor.
