She's broke. He's heartless. The contract said no love-so why is her heart breaking?
When struggling college student Naya Carter agrees to a fake engagement with cold billionaire Kian Vale, it's just business: pretend to be his fiancée for three months, attend a few galas, smile for the cameras, and walk away with $100,000.
Simple.
Until living under the same roof becomes dangerously complicated. Kian doesn't believe in love. Naya doesn't believe in fairy tales. But in a world of lies, what happens when the only thing that feels real... is each other?
A slow-burn, enemies-to-lovers romance about trust, secrets, and the one contract no one saw coming-the one written on their hearts.
