THE BILLIONAIRE'S BAIT

Katherine did not expect gratitude to cost her freedom.

When the wealthy and calculating Judith offered to pay for Katherine's critically ill mother's treatment, Katherine believes she has found an unlikely saviour. But Judith's generosity comes with a cruel condition hidden under good deed to get close to billionaire businessman Patrick Wilson, earn his trust and uncover the secrets that could destroy his family's empire.

Patrick needs a wife but not for love.

At forty-one, he has learned that affection often comes with a hidden price. When Judith introduces him to Katherine, he assumes the beautiful 26 years old accountant is another woman attracted to his wealth. Instead, Katherine rejects him, challenges his arrogance and makes him feel something that no carefully selected bride ever has.

Intrigued, Patrick offers her fourteen days to decide whether he is worthy of her trust.

But every day Katherine spends with him pushes her deeper into a dangerous trap. And beneath Judith's revenge lies a secret buried for decades. A devastating betrayal involving Patrick's father and the true relationship between Judith and Katherine's mother.

Katherine was supposed to be the bait.

Patrick was supposed to be the target.

But when their arranged courtship becomes real, Katherine must choose between protecting the mother who sacrificed everything for her and saving the man she was sent to destroy.

Because once Patrick learns the truth, losing his love may be the least dangerous consequence.
