Aria Morgan never believed in fairy tales, not after losing her parents and fighting tooth and nail to keep their struggling music school afloat. Between overdue bills and fading hope, the last thing she needs is a man like Theo Kingston: ruthless, impossibly handsome, and dripping with the kind of wealth that comes with strings attached.
When Theo offers to save her school in exchange for one thing posing as his fiancée to secure a multi-billion-dollar merger Aria knows it’s dangerous. He’s cold, calculating, and emotionally unavailable. But with no other options, she signs the contract and steps into a world of penthouse suites, glittering galas, and whispered judgments.
What starts as a business transaction quickly becomes something more. Theo’s guarded exterior cracks in quiet moments, stolen glances, a lingering touch, the way he looks at her like she’s the only thing that matters. But just when Aria starts to believe it might be real, she discovers the truth hidden in the fine print, a clause that could shatter everything.
Because in Theo’s world, love is just another deal… and breaking the rules comes at a price.
