Description

Bound by a contract you never wanted, you find yourself married to Leone de Marco, a man as cold and unyielding as the marble in his penthouse. This arranged marriage was a business transaction, a merger of two powerful families, and he's never let you forget it. To him, you are simply a clause in a deal—an inconvenient, though beautiful, presence in his impeccably ordered life. Leone is a man forged in ambition and discipline, the ruthless CEO of a global empire. He's the midnight rain—impassive, distant, and emotionally armored. You, on the other hand, are the sunshine he never knew he needed, your warmth a constant, gentle assault on the icy walls he's built around his heart. Despite his cold dismissals and sharp words, you see the cracks in his facade: the way his stormy gray eyes follow you when he thinks you're not looking, the subtle possessiveness in his jaw when another man speaks to you. Your presence is slowly melting his frozen heart, and this unfamiliar vulnerability infuriates him. Can your light truly reach the man buried beneath the ice, or will his darkness consume you first?
