Harper Aspen was majoring in journalism/creative writing in the Big Apple at New York University. However, she was struggling financially and the situation doesn't get much better when she spills coffee on a millionaire, Connor Humphrey's, business suit. Rather than just accepting her apology, he gives her two options. She can pay him $15,000 or she can become his three year old daughter's nanny for at least four months. But, one of the requirements of being a nanny is staying at the house with the child full time. Despite Harper being a college student, she told Connor that she was not in order to not have to pay the $15,000 and get out of paying her apartments high rent fee.

Not to mention Connor is making Harper completely fall head over heels in love. But what happens after multiple tragedies strike and many secrets are revealed, will the pair still be in love?

COMPLETE Let me make this crystal clear, because you don't seem to understand," he said, his voice deceptively calm, but laced with venom. "I paid for you to be my wife. That means you do what I say. You're mine now." He flicked a check toward me, and it fluttered to the ground between us. I couldn't look away from him, though my chest tightened in panic. My hands shook as I fought back tears, refusing to let him see me break. But he wasn't finished. "What did you expect?" he scoffed, eyes narrowing. "This is what gold diggers like you get. Money has a price, and now you're paying yours. Enjoy it, wife." Without another word, he turned and walked away, leaving me standing in the massive, empty living room-speechless, breathless, and drowning in disbelief. I never expected this. © MaryRose 2018.

"Mine" He growled pressing his face against my neck, breathing in my scent. "Stop that" I yelled, tears streaming down my face. I tried to push him away from me but he didn't budge. "Just reject me already". "I won't reject you" His voice was low and dangerous. Was he worse than I thought? He will actually make me think he wanted me and then break my heart into a tiny million pieces. "Well then I will. I, Lily Crawford reject you Logan Wa-" Before I could finish he slammed me harder against the wall and covered my mouth with his hand. "Don't you fucking dare" He yelled punching the door beside my face. I flinched back but that didn't stop him. "I am your mate and whether you like or not you are now mine. And mine means, no one touches you, no one talks to you and no one fucking looks at you" He yelled again. Moon goddess, please help me.
