"Rule number one," Liam murmurs, sliding the absurdly heavy diamond onto my finger. "We don't murder each other before the ink on this marriage certificate dries."
I yank my hand back the second he lets go. "Rule number two. You sleep in the guest house."
Liam Ashford is Harwick City's most ruthless billionaire CEO, and my absolute worst nightmare. For twenty years, we've been locked in a bitter, unapologetic rivalry. He is arrogant, relentlessly controlling, and possesses a devastating smirk I've spent my entire life wanting to slap off his face.
But when a hostile takeover threatens my family's company, my fiercely independent streak isn't enough to bail us out. I need a husband to access my trust fund. Liam needs a respectable wife to secure his board's crumbling confidence.
A strictly business, secret marriage of convenience. That's all this is supposed to be.
We agree on the ground rules: keep the rings hidden, maintain our distance, and never acknowledge that our lifelong animosity feels dangerously like foreplay.
Then a high-stakes corporate retreat forces us into a single bed in a shared penthouse suite, and our fragile truce shatters. Suddenly, the man who spent two decades pushing my buttons is acting like a fiercely protective husband, ready to ruin anyone who looks twice at me.
As the friction between us ignites into undeniable heat, I realize the arrogant enemy I swore to merely tolerate has been harboring a completely different obsession all along—and he has no intention of ever letting me go.
