Countdown to launch:
By L Steele
Coming Soon
Heโs my brotherโs best friend. My arrogant boss who doesn’t believe in loveโฆ and as of today, my fake husband.
Gideon Hamilton is an emotionally unavailable billionaire who rules the corporate world with an iron fist.
He buys failing empires, tears them apart, and never lets anyone past his brutal defenses. Driven by a traumatic past and deep abandonment issues, Gideonโs golden rule is simple: never commit, never feel, and never trust a soul.
Iโm his exact opposite.
As a romance editor, I spend my days shaping stories of soulmates, grand gestures, and happily ever afters. Iโm a sunshine heroine who believes in book boyfriends and true love; even if Iโve spent years secretly pining for my brotherโs impossibly distant, dangerously handsome best friend.
When my brother asks Gideon to look out for me, Gideon takes matters into his own hands and demands we marry.
I refuse. So he does what any ruthless CEO would do: he buys out my publishing house, becomes my boss, and hands me an ultimatum. Marry him, or watch my dream job vanish.
The deal? One year of marriage. Complete financial protection. Zero feelings.
The rules of our marriage contract are simple:
Move into his luxury penthouse
Play the adoring wife in front of his family.
Never mistake his cold duty for affection, and never, ever fall in love.
He thinks my warmth is a weakness. I know his ice is just armor.
It was supposed to be a purely business transaction. But the second the ring hits my finger, the cold tycoon disappearsโreplaced by an over-the-top possessive billionaire who growls “my wife” and tracks my every move.
He vows heโll never give me his heart, but as his “touch her and I’ll unalive you” instinct turns into unbridled chemistry between us, this arrogant king is about to learn that some contracts are meant to be brokenโฆ
This book is a standalone billionaire romance. It features a grumpy possessive CEO, a curvy romance editor, a close proximity, marriage of convenience, hate to love tension, and a very satisfying happily ever after. There is no cheating.
