NOT YOUR REGULAR WATTPAD STORY!!
💔 Arranged Vows. Hidden Sins. A Love Neither Asked For.
Luke Lawson didn't ask to be a puppet in his father's legacy game. He didn't ask to marry a stranger just to merge two companies. And he definitely didn't ask for Sienna Klein-Trager, the fiery redhead beauty with a razor-sharp tongue and a heartbreak that rivals his own.
Sienna just lost everything: her dignity, her biggest deal, and the man she thought she loved who betrayed her in the cruelest way. Now, to save her father's crumbling empire, she must marry the arrogant, brooding heir of Lawson Enterprise.
Neither of them wants this.
But secrets have a way of clawing their way to the surface. And when a buried past, deadly regrets, and unresolved pain resurface, their fake marriage becomes anything but simple.
Can two people forced together by business survive the emotional battlefield they've both been trying to outrun?
Or will the ghosts of their past destroy their only shot at something real?
🔥Enemies. 🔐Secrets. 💍An arranged marriage neither expected.
A slow-burn, enemies-to-lovers story with sizzling chemistry, biting banter, and a redemption arc that will leave you breathless.

But when she enters his world, she threatens everything he thinks he understands about power, loyalty, and the quiet hunger he can't seem to kill. ꨄ -#1 in #billionare - 22/08/23 -#3 in #storytelling -14/11/23 -#1 in #girlboss - 06/11/23 -#1 in #stalker - 08/11/23 -#5 in #daddyissues - 21/02/24 -#5 in #arrangedmarriage - 04/07/24
