Known for her boldness and quick comebacks, Amelia Harper has never been one to back down from a challenge. Amelia doesn’t do arrogant CEOs, and she definitely doesn’t fake relationships. She clashes with the cold and apparently arrogant CEO, Adrian Langford. But when a high-stakes deal forces them into a fake relationship, the rules are clear: It’s strictly business. Strictly temporary and controlled. But eventually, the chemistry between them stops following the rules. And suddenly, their perfectly planned arrangement… isn’t so perfect anymore.

"Sign it," he said. Three years of marriage ended with a line and a pen that trembled in her hand. It wasn't the papers that hurt—it was the way he didn't even flinch when she did. Amelia Hart walked out of his penthouse that night with nothing but a suitcase and a broken heartbeat. She'd given Daniel Sterling everything—her love, her identity, her silent devotion—only to be discarded the moment she became inconvenient. But when the empire he built begins to fall, when the cold CEO who never looked back suddenly needs the woman he threw away, he returns with the same hands that once let her go, now reaching for what he destroyed. Only this time, there's a clause he didn't read…

Sloane Parker, a 22 years old Columbia Law senior, has a five-year plan that does not include billionaires or babies. She wasn't supposed to be at the Hamptons party at all. Sterling Vance, 26 years old, heir to the Vance Hotels, throws a party every night because his glass Tribeca penthouse is too big and too empty to be alone in. Cold, nonchalant, and handsome in a way that makes everyone stare, he has learned to treat everything like business. They meet hiding from the same party on a second-floor balcony. One conversation. Three hours. One sober, mutual choice they both knew they shouldn't make. Four weeks later, Sloane gets three positive tests in the law library bathroom. At the same time, a video of her at the party reaches her retired judge father and Sterling's family. Facing a crucial IPO, Sterling's parents propose a solution: a one-year contractual marriage. Sloane will live in the penthouse, attend galas, and finish law school. In exchange, the baby receives a trust and her tuition is paid. No feelings. No complications. Separate rooms. Sterling agrees. Efficient. Business-like and cold. But Sterling's best friend and houseguest, Kevin Park has another idea: "What if I marry Maya too so they aren't alone?" So now it's two fake marriages. Four people. One penthouse. Sloane is fake married to a billionaire who pretends he doesn't care. Maya, her cousin and room mate, is fake married to Kevin, who cares too much. With Fridge Rules in glitter marker, 2 AM pickle cravings, and a baby on the way, the question becomes whether a year of faking it is enough to make it real.

I gave my husband five years of my life, and he never once looked at me like I mattered. I wasn’t stupid. I knew about the other woman. Everyone did. But I kept telling myself that being patient was the same thing as being loved. Then one night I stopped telling myself that lie. I didn’t yell. I didn’t cry in front of him. I simply put my ring on his desk and asked for a divorce. He signed the papers so quickly it felt like he had been waiting for me to say it first. So I left. I took almost nothing. I started over with nothing but a laptop and a stubborn decision not to disappear quietly. Turns out I’m good at this. Really good. Six months later, I walk into the biggest business event of the year. The entire room goes silent. I am the person who just bought a share of his family’s company. And I am standing next to the one man he truly hates. He looks at me as if he is seeing me for the very first time. Too bad, he already had five years. Now he won’t stop showing up. He won’t stop trying. And he won’t stop looking at me like he made the worst mistake of his life… because he did. The problem is, there is another man now. A man who never made me feel invisible. A man who actually wants to know me. For the first time in my life, I get to choose. Not who gets to keep me, but who I truly want. He is about to discover that the wife he let go, no longer needs him. But, the real question is whether that truth is finally what makes him worth wanting back.

Despite his flaws, she had a passionate one-night stand with him, creating a bond that binds them forever and forging a connection that transcends fleeting moments.

She didn't build his empire. She multiplied it — from a kitchen table at nineteen, with an algorithm no one knew was hers. He built his future without her in it. For eight years she ran his home, raised his son, and gave up her own ambitions to stand quietly beside him. Now he wants a divorce. He's already found someone who fits — polished, well-connected, the kind of woman who belongs at his table. But she has something he never accounted for: the most advanced financial algorithm in the country, registered entirely in her name. And she's done being invisible. What happens when the woman he dismissed becomes the one everyone wants?

My heart shattered the second I walked into that bar and saw my boyfriend of three years making out with who I thought was my best friend. My boyfriend, the one who had just talked to me about getting married to me a few nights ago. In a night of heartbreak and alcohol, I bowed to forget about him. But fate threw me a curve ball when I woke up in bed with the person I least expected... Dad's partner and the same man that I had lost my vir*inity to when I was you*ger, Daniel Halloway. To make matters worse, we were married, and he refuses to annul our marriage. "I'll give you a divorce, but only after our contract is over. After that, you're free to go." he corners me back to the wall making me feel like a small pr*y, waiting to be devoured by its hunter. "But until then... You're mine, and I will do with you as I so d*mn well please," he whispers in my ear, sending shivers up my spine.

I despised Dante Moretti long before he slid that ring onto my finger. Arrogant. Controlling. The kind of boss who could ruin my day with a single clipped order. I hated the way he spoke to me. I hated the way he watched me more. But walking into my hometown with his ring and watching my ex-husband’s face drain of color felt wickedly perfect. The elders wanted to see real love before selling their land. So Dante and I lied. We played the sweet couple. Except Dante didn’t touch me like a man pretending. At the Christmas market, his hand slid down my spine and stopped right where it shouldn’t. At dinner, he whispered against my ear, “If he’s watching, spread your legs a little. Let him see who owns you now.” I should have slapped him. Instead, my body answered him before I could breathe. He kissed my temple too slow and held my waist too tight. When the lights dimmed, he murmured, “Open for me.” “Keep your eyes on me.” “I want you shaking for me, not for him.” Somewhere between hating him and wanting him to wreck me, everything blurred. Because the man who barked orders in boardrooms had me whispering his name in the dark, Christmas lights flickering over his bare shoulders while he swallowed every sound I made. My ex wanted me broken. Dante wanted me ruined, but only beneath him. And the worst part was how easily I let him. Santa didn’t bring me a miracle. He gave me a sin in a three piece suit and I tore the wrapping off with trembling hands.

"If you're looking for a personal prostitute, I suggest you try elsewhere." She spat the words like they tasted bad. "I'd rather lose my job than lose my self-respect." “But 'personal prostitute'? That stung. Made me sound like some sleazy corporate villain from a bad movie. "You're misunderstanding me." I straightened up, adjusting my tie. "What if I offered something more legitimate?" "Like what?" "Be my girlfriend." Madison's jaw dropped. "Excuse me?" "One year." I warmed to the idea as I spoke. Madison Harper knows all too well the chaos Alexander Knight leaves in his wake. As the billionaire CEO’s personal assistant, she’s cleaned up after countless scandals, soothed furious ex-lovers, and kept his tumultuous private life from spilling into the boardroom. But when one fateful night lands her in Alexander’s bed, everything changes. After the one-night stand, what begins as a moment of weakness spirals into an arrangement neither of them can resist: Madison needs financial help for her mother’s mounting medical bills, and Alexander offers it—on one condition.

But as the lines between their professional and personal lives blur, Madison’s resolve to keep her heart guarded begins to falter.

And just as she starts to believe she might be more than his latest “arrangement,” the ghost of Alexander’s long-lost first love, Katherine, reappears—threatening to destroy their relationship in a dangerous love triangle.
