With forty-three dollars to her name and her brother's life-saving medical bills piling up, Ava Reed is drowning in desperation. Then, a summons arrives from Damian Vale, the city's most ruthless billionaire, a man who commands empires and expects absolute control. He doesn't want an intern; he wants a wife. A contractual marriage, devoid of emotion, designed to secure his inheritance and offer Ava an impossible escape from her crushing reality. But as she stares at the cold, precise terms of the agreement, especially the clause forbidding any emotional claim, Ava realizes this isn't just a bargain for survival, it's a dangerous game where her heart is the ultimate collateral.
