“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.

The words poured out of Jayden like a dam bursting under unbearable pressure—a relentless, raw tirade of profound exasperation, terrified concern, and deeply wounded male pride. He was breathing heavily, his chest heaving as the silence fell again. Han stayed completely quiet on the line, wisely letting Jayden vent every ounce of poison brewing inside his head. The raw, bleeding emotion in Jayden's usually controlled voice was terrifyingly palpable; Han could practically picture the tight, pale, agitated expression etched across his friend's face, the vein pulsing dangerously at his temple.
