The CEO’s Reluctant Bride

My ex just asked me to marry him. Not because he loves me. Because his father’s will says he has to. Blake James needs a wife to inherit his billion-dollar empire. Someone smart enough to help run it. Someone he trusts not to destroy him. Someone he can stand for five years. He chose me. His ex. The girl he broke. The deal is Pretend to be in love. Live together. Play the perfect power couple. In five years, I walk away with enough money to build the life I’ve always dreamed of. No feelings. No complications. Except Blake is still the only man who’s ever made my heart forget how to beat properly. And the way he looks at me? It’s starting to feel a lot less like business. I swore I’d never let him break me twice. But the more time we spend pretending to be married… The more I realise the choice was never really mine to make.
