The Marriage Clause

He needed a wife before Monday.
She needed a future she could afford.
Neither of them expected a contract signed in black ink to rewrite their hearts.
When 26-year-old Amara Bennett loses her apartment and watches her dream of opening a design studio slip further away, she's offered an unbelievable deal by a stranger in an expensive suit.
Elias Kingston, a 31-year-old billionaire CEO, has one problem money can't solve. To inherit control of his family's company, he must be legally married within thirty days-a condition written into his late grandfather's will.
His solution? A one-year marriage contract with clear rules:
No falling in love.
No interfering in each other's private lives.
At the end of twelve months, they walk away.
Living together in a luxurious penthouse should have been easy.
Until midnight conversations replace awkward silence.
Until fake kisses for the cameras begin to feel real.
Until jealousy starts breaking rules neither of them admitted they cared about.
The contract promised an ending.
Their hearts have other plans.
