“She needs millions to save her family home. He needs a wife for twelve months. Neither expected desire to become part of the deal. When Isabella's family is given only forty-eight hours to settle a devastating debt, she has nowhere left to turn. Then billionaire Adrian Blackwood offers her an impossible solution: marry him. Twelve months. Public appearances. No interference in each other's private lives. And absolutely no falling in love. It should be simple. But Adrian isn't the cold, ruthless billionaire Isabella expected. Behind his controlled exterior is a dangerous intensity that makes her question why he chose her when he could have any woman he wanted. And the more time they spend together, the harder it becomes to ignore the undeniable attraction burning between them. But Adrian has a reason for wanting Isabella by his side-one he refuses to reveal. As their fake marriage begins to feel dangerously real, Isabella must uncover the truth before she loses more than her family home. Because she may have signed a marriage contract with the devil... but she never expected to desire him this much.”
