Sophia Reid never believed in fairy tales—life had been too cruel for that. Struggling to keep her small design company afloat, she’s willing to do anything to survive in a ruthless city. But when a shocking betrayal leaves her on the verge of ruin, she receives an irresistible offer—a contract marriage with Damien Blackwood, the cold and dangerously powerful billionaire who rules the business world like a king.
Damien has no interest in love. To him, marriage is just another business deal, a necessity to secure his family's empire. But from the moment he lays eyes on Sophia, he knows she’s different—fierce, stubborn, and impossible to control. Their contract is clear: one year of marriage, no emotions, no strings attached. But as heated arguments turn into fiery passion, and cold gazes become smoldering stares, Damien finds himself breaking his own rules.
