When broke and desperate Zara Adetayo signs a contract to marry Nigeria’s youngest billionaire CEO, Damien Odukoya, she expects nothing more than a year of cold silence and legal pretenses. But behind his icy exterior lies a man haunted by loss, betrayal, and family obligations. For Damien, the marriage is a necessary chess move to secure a board seat in his late father's conglomerate. For Zara, it's the only way to save her brother from drowning in debt.
The rules are simple:
No intimacy.
No emotional attachment.
No one must know it's fake.
But rules were made to be broken.
As secrets unfold and sparks fly, Zara must decide whether to walk away when the year ends—or fight for a love she never thought she deserved. And Damien, once a man carved in ice, may be forced to choose between power… and a woman who taught him how to feel again.
