Valerie Watson sold nine months of her life for one hundred million dollars-and lost everything.
Forced by her cruel stepmother to carry a stranger's child, Valerie was stripped of her innocence, abandoned by the man she loved, and cast out of the only home she ever knew. The baby she carried was taken from her arms the moment she gave birth. As if that wasn't enough, her scheming stepsister stole what little remained of her shattered life-including her boyfriend.
Broken and betrayed, Valerie disappeared.
Six years later, she resurfaces in Northridge, no longer the helpless girl she once was, but a woman determined to survive. Her new job? A nanny at the lavish residence of billionaire CEO Davison.
Her task is simple-care for his bold, sharp-tongued little daughter.
Yet from the very first day, something feels dangerously familiar.
Why does the child cling to her so fiercely?
Why does her heart ache every time the little girl smiles?
And why does the cold, untouchable CEO watch her like she's a secret he's forgotten... but his soul remembers?
What happens when the past comes knocking-
and the child she once carried is no longer just a memory?
Some contracts end after nine months.
Others rewrite your entire destiny.

She was never meant to be his bride. Yet fate exchanged her heart for his fury. When Elara Cross is forced to marry Adrian Vale, the man once promised to her late sister, she becomes nothing more than an exchange bride-a substitute pawn in a business deal sealed with tragedy. To Adrian, she is a ghost wearing the face of the woman he loved. To her family, she is disposable, an illegitimate daughter raised in cruelty and handed over like property. But Elara's quiet endurance unsettles Adrian more than defiance ever could. Behind her hollow eyes and malnourished frame lies a survivor who has known only pain, and Adrian's vow to make her life hell begins to fracture under the weight of her scars. As the secrets of their pasts unravel-and as the ghost of Adrian's lost love lingers between them-hatred twists into obsession, cruelty into protection, and an unwanted marriage into something neither of them expected: a story written not by fate, but by choice.Lengkap
