Ella has never been interested in marrying for anything short of love itself. Unfortunately for her, love is a rarity in the marriages of the aristocracy. Fortunately for her, her sister Emily is precisely one year older than her and is the most unpleasant, disagreeable, sulking woman to ever debut in all of England. So Ella may never have to marry at all. A free woman, she enjoys her time on the sidelines and wishes for nothing more. That is, until a tall, dark, and brooding Duke comes to town alongside an old friend of her brother's. Suddenly, Ella finds herself questioning the antiquated marriage order rule as her buffer begins to feel more like a barrier. Not that it matters. The Duke isn't interested in her anyway. Right?

It's a slow burn, so don't be disappointed if they don't have crazy sex in the first chapters. They will get laid eventually just that it needs to develop first. Smut is signaled with a note at the beginning of the chapter. The book is meant for mature audience and contains lots of triggers so if you are very sensitive DO NOT read it. -This is a work of fiction and every resemblance with real-life persons or places are only a coincidence, and yada yada. -It should not be copied, but I don't think there is danger of that. 😂 Just have fun and write your own story. -English is (sadly) not my first language, not even my second. Unfortunately, there will be mistakes. Feel free to point them out; I appreciate that.

Evie: Rowan Alastair Volkov had been my biggest nightmare and rival since I met him. He was like a shadow I couldn't shrug off. Perhaps my own. With his arrogance, his snide remarks, his grumpy frown, and his sadistic smirk, he proved to be the one thing standing in my way to a happy life and a happy ending. Regardless of our history and families, we were strangers. That was until the one link separating us shattered. What I never imagined was Rowan asking me for help. Asking me to be his wife. On paper only. Worse? I never imagined falling for him. We signed ourselves away to certain terms & truths, but now, everything was different. Because I fell in love with him beyond those terms. Rowan: Evie Rose Spencer has been the epitome of an annoying thorn in my side that I can't pull out. I've done everything to escape her. With her sarcastic wit, her confident facade, her brighter-than-the-sun smile, and her sparkly ocean blue eyes, I'd come to hate her more than anybody I'd ever met. But, we had an understanding. Be strangers. Then my whole life began to fall apart all thanks to one inheritance will. I was meant to take the seat beside my older brother and run the Volkov empire. In order for me to take what I inherited, I had to be married and make it last a whole year. If I failed, everything I wanted would be taken from me. The best shot I had at finding a new wife was marrying a stranger. But fate tied me down to Evelyn. We signed ourselves away to certain terms & truths, but if she breaks them, she'll have no one to blame but herself. Breaking her heart was inevitable with this marriage license.

"He doesn't have to love you Annabelle," Monalisa replied. "Just focus on the money and fame his name will bring to us." *** "If you expect me to fulfill any obligation as a...husband, to you, then think again." He said coldly. "We are married on paper only and I will never look at you as my wife!" Tears were beginning to form in her eyes. "To me, you are just a housemate." Her life was doomed. But she had no choice but to embrace what fate had brought her way. Her hot husband could not even stand the sight of her and she was bound to him forever. Could her life get any worse...? Or Could there be hope for her? *** Highest Rankings: #1 in Watty #1 in Africa, #1 in hatred, #1 in Europe #1 in lovely, #1 in jealousy #1 in arranged marriage #1 in billionaire #1 in proud #1 in Nigeria
