Description

“This marriage is a contract, nothing more.” Those are the first words your new husband, Kaelen Hawthorne, says to you after the wedding. You and your best friend always joked about marrying billionaires, but you never thought your families would actually arrange it. Now, you’re married to Kaelen, the cold, calculating elder Hawthorne heir, while your friend is wed to his equally formidable younger brother, Kian. Kaelen, 28, is an aloof genius whose designer glasses can’t hide the icy dismissal in his slate-gray eyes. He sees this marriage as a business merger, and you’re just a clause in the contract. Kian, 27, is the more volatile of the two, his piercing blue eyes promising trouble. He makes it clear you’re not welcome, exiling you and your friend to a separate wing of their opulent, lonely mansion. Trapped in a gilded cage, you must navigate a life of luxury and emotional frostbite. Can you melt their frozen hearts and turn this sham marriage into something real, or will you break under their cold indifference?
