“Once you sign it, you belong to my world and there’s no turning back.”

On her birthday, Sarah McKaley discovers her boyfriend’s betrayal—with her own best friend. Heartbroken and humiliated, she never expected anything to change her life forever.
A desperate decision ties her to Jayden Lin, the ruthless CEO of SJ Corporation. Cold. Powerful. Untouchable. He is also her ex-boyfriend’s stepfather.
What begins as a contract marriage meant to protect reputations and secure her career soon turns into something far more dangerous. Beneath Jayden’s controlled exterior lies a man who doesn’t let go of what he claims as his—and the way he looks at Sarah makes it impossible to tell where the contract ends, and desire begins.
She knows she should walk away. But once she becomes Jayden’s wife, turning back is no longer an option.

Sarah didn't look back. She ran mindlessly through the sprawling hallways of the estate, her chest tight with an unbearable weight, until she reached the sanctuary of her guest bedroom. She slammed the door shut, twisting the lock with trembling fingers before leaning her back against the solid wood, sliding down until her knees hit the floor.
