Auralia is a Brazilian jiu-jitsu instructor at her late father’s failing dojo. She’s one payment away from losing everything her father built, where her childhood memories live. 

So, when the chairman of Ezra Holdings wife, Maria Ezra, comes to Auralia with a proposal of being her son’s bodyguard, Auralia cannot help but agree to the proposal. In exchange for protecting her son, Alexander Ezra, for one year Auralia will not only get a six figure salary but she’ll also get the title deed to the dojo’s building, allowing her to save the dojo.

There is one problem however. Alexander can’t know that Auralia is his bodyguard. Thus Auralia has to marry the man, acting as his wife while secretly protecting him.

An arranged marriage is not something she wants and her husband-to-be makes matters worse when he hands her a contract with terms to which she has to follow in exchange for marrying him.

Will she be able to navigate the world of the rich as Alexander’s fake wife without the man discovering the real reason behind her marrying him? And can she keep any feelings from developing between the two?

Only time will tell…

The Bodyguard Wife

"What's wrong?" Auralia asked, turning around to see what had gotten Madison all worked up.

The café only had a few people around so it was easy to figure out that Madison had gotten upset over a small group of teenagers who had walked in.

They were wearing a different uniform to Madison and gave off a troublemaker vibe. Maybe it was because she had lived in a rough neighborhood for a long time, but Auralia knew instantly that the group of four were bad news.

She didn't know how her cousin knew them and hoped it wasn't because they were friends. Not that she believed that. Her cousin's face was telling a different story.

One that didn't want to deal with them. And her cousin's actions soon confirmed Auralia's suspicions. Madison quickly sat down and pulled Auralia closer to her, as if she was trying to hide behind Auralia.

"I…" Madison started before pausing and looking at Auralia with fear in her eyes. "Just pretend that we're not here."
