The Wife He Never Wanted

Roman Ashford had everything a man could ask for-wealth, power, and a name that opened every door.

Except the one thing he wanted most.

His bride.

On the morning of his highly anticipated wedding, Isabella Bennett disappears without a trace, leaving behind a scandal that threatens both families.

With a powerful business alliance hanging by a thread and the Ashford legacy at risk, Leah Bennett-the quiet, responsible sister who has spent her life fixing everyone else's problems-is forced to make an impossible choice.

Become the wife of the man who never wanted her... or watch her family lose everything.

Roman Ashford never wanted Leah.

She was not the woman he chose. Not the woman he loved. Not the woman he had planned to build a future with.

To him, their marriage is nothing more than a contract-a temporary solution to a problem he refuses to accept.

But Leah is not the fragile replacement he believes her to be.

Behind her gentle smile is a brilliant strategist, a woman with hidden ambitions, and a strength even she forgot she possessed.

As Leah steps into the Ashford world, Roman begins to see the woman he never bothered to know.

The wife he ignored.
The woman he underestimated.
The person who might become the only thing he cannot live without.

But when secrets from the past return and the missing bride reappears, Leah must decide...

Will she fight for a love that was never meant for her, or will she finally choose herself?

A marriage built on obligation.
A love born from unexpected places.
A billionaire who must learn that the woman he never wanted is the woman he can never lose.
