Ebony "Yve" Shaw's world crumbles in a single devastating day. A fire claims her home and ten-month-old son, leaving her reeling in unimaginable grief. The blow is compounded by the discovery of her husband's infidelity with her best friend, a betrayal that shatters her trust and leaves her emotionally devastated. Penniless and heartbroken, Yve finds herself adrift, her life in ruins.
Seeking solace in a luxury hotel bar, a chance encounter with enigmatic billionaire, George Blackwood, offers an unexpected lifeline. He proposes a shocking arrangement: "Wife for Hire." A purely transactional marriage, devoid of emotional commitment, in exchange for a substantial sum - half a million dollar deposited immediately. For Yve, this proposition becomes more than just a financial opportunity; it's a chance for retribution against those who destroyed her life. Fueled by a desire for revenge, she accepts.
Yve enters George's world, a world of wealth, power, and hidden agendas. As she navigates the complexities of their fake marriage, the lines between business and personal begin to blur. The carefully constructed facade starts to crack, and Yve finds herself unexpectedly falling for George. But their arrangement is built on secrets and lies, and as their feelings deepen, Yve discovers that playing the role of wife is far more complicated than she ever imagined. Her heart is on the line, and the price of love might be higher than she's willing to pay. Will Yve find healing and happiness in this unconventional relationship, or will the tangled web of their arrangement ultimately lead to heartbreak?
I woke up in the morning and felt the pain in a place I've never hurt before. I took a peek at my own body, and my mind went blank. My eyes found a man who was lying beside me, sleeping, and my mind brought me back to me all the crazy things that happened last night.
My 2 years boyfriend dumped me, I was drunk and went to my hotel room alone. Someone climbed on me. To say that he was handsome is an understatement. If an angel could marry a devil, then I'm sure he was their son. But that was not the point! He came to me and kissed me. One thing led to another..
God! This guy took my virginity. And that was not the worst. Guess what! He was my new boss. I was his new executive assistant. To top it, my ex boyfriend accused my boss that he raped me.
What should I do? Trust my ex boyfriend who just dumped me? Or.. trust my new boss who was sexy as hell (that's not the point, by the way) and the one who took my virginity?
