THE BILLIONAIRE'S REGRET: CHASING HIS RUNAWAY BRIDE AND HEIR

Anotación

"You ruined a five-thousand-dollar suit, Andrea Rostova. How exactly do you plan to pay for this?" When struggling art student Andrea Rostova spilled champagne on the "Prince of Steel," she expected to be fired. She didn't expect Maxwell Harrington to offer her a deal: play his fake fiancée to ward off an arranged marriage, and he would pay for her mother’s life-saving treatment. Andrea signed the contract, thinking she could keep her heart safe. But as the fake smiles turned into real passion, the boundaries of their arrangement blurred until Andrea was no longer just a pawn, she was in love. But Maxwell’s world is built on ice and secrets. Manipulated by a jealous ex-fiancée and his own deep-seated trust issues, Maxwell brutally casts Andrea out, believing her to be a gold-digging spy. Heartbroken and alone, Andrea discovers she is pregnant. Knowing the Harrington contract claims ownership of any heir, she disappears into the shadows to protect her child. Four years later, the secret is out. Maxwell, now hollowed out by regret, finds Andrea in a quiet coastal town and discovers the daughter he never knew existed. Furious at her disappearance but consumed by a possessive need to reclaim his family, he issues a cold ultimatum: return to his mansion for six months, or face a custody battle she can’t win. Forced back into his gilded cage, Andrea must decide if Maxwell is the man who broke her, or the one who will go "scorched earth" to protect them from the enemies closing in.
