A Vow We Both Regret

He was the last man she ever wanted to marry.

Adrian Blackwood.
Cold. Arrogant. Ruthless.

And, unfortunately, the only man who could save her family from ruin.

Amelia Carter never imagined her life would come down to one decision: marry the man she despised or watch everything her family had built disappear.

Their marriage was never meant to be about love. It was a deal between two powerful families, sealed with a ring and a promise neither of them intended to keep.

She planned to survive the year and walk away.

He planned to make sure she never forgot who she belonged to.

But somewhere between the late-night arguments, stolen glances, jealousy neither of them would admit to, and moments that blur the line between hatred and desire, their arrangement begins to feel dangerously real.

They were supposed to hate each other.

So why does leaving him suddenly feel impossible?
