Synopsis

From New York Times bestselling author Sadie Kincaid comes a billionaire arranged marriage romance, filled with betrayal, angst and heat. Never fall in love. It’s the one lesson I live by. No attachments. No expectations. No complications. That is until my father decides to rewrite the rules. His demand? Get married. Produce heirs. Secure the future of the James empire. Oh—and he’s already chosen my bride. Convenient, right? Honestly, I don’t hate the idea. I’m a lawyer—contracts are what I do best. Marriage is just another agreement. Terms. Conditions. Sign on the dotted line. Easy. Then I meet her . Melanie Edison is nothing like the women I’m used to—sharp-tongued, stubborn, and completely unimpressed by my money or my name. A veterinary nurse with curves I can’t ignore and a rule I definitely don’t like: no sex before marriage. It should be simple. A deal. A transaction. No feelings involved. But somewhere between the tension, the lingering looks, and the lines we swore we wouldn’t cross… everything changes. Because the one rule I never break? I shattered it. And now, the one woman I was never supposed to love… might be the one I can’t live without.
