Meet Lucien Grey, a billionaire, a ruthless CEO, and a notorious playboy who has never bowed to anyone—until now. When his father delivers an ultimatum—marry within a month or lose the company to his scheming stepbrothe. Love has never been part of his plans, and the idea of marriage is laughable. But desperation breeds opportunity.
Enter Anastasia Smith, his beautiful and brilliant secretary. With her father’s medical bills piling up and no way to afford the life-saving surgery he needs, she is running out of time. Lucien makes her an offer she can’t refuse: a marriage contract that benefits them both. He keeps his company, and she gets the money to save her father. No emotions, no complications—just business.
But as the lines blur between duty and desire,
Lucien finds himself drawn to the woman who was supposed to be just a pawn in his game. Anastasia with her quiet strength and fiery resilience, begins to unravel the walls he’s spent years building. And when the contract threatens to end, Lucien is face with a new dilemma- walk away as planned or fight for the one thing he never believed in..love.
