Contracted to the Ice-Cold CEO
Amara Bennett has never been the type to follow rules-especially not ones written by powerful families and billion-dollar expectations. Fierce, outspoken, and determined to build her own life, she refuses to be treated like a bargaining chip.
Adrian Cole built his empire on control. As one of America's youngest and most ruthless CEOs, he keeps emotions locked away and relationships strictly professional. Love is a distraction he cannot afford.
So when their families propose an engagement to secure a high-stakes business alliance, both of them agree for one reason only: it's temporary.
No feelings.
No complications.
Just a contract.
But pretending to be in love is far more dangerous than either of them expected.
Between media scrutiny, a family determined to tear them apart, and a past that refuses to stay buried, Amara and Adrian find . themselves drawn into a slow, undeniable connection neither planned... and neither knows how to stop.
Because the colder Adrian tries to be, the more Amara sees the man beneath the ice.
And the more she fights it, the harder it becomes to ignore the truth:
Some contracts are meant to be broken.
Others rewrite your heart entirely.
