Obsessive Need

He bought my debts. He bought my building. And then he bought me.

I had twelve dollars in my bank account and an eviction notice on my door when Harlan Perry kicked his way into my life. He's the King of Chicago-a ruthless billionaire with a heart of ice and a legacy built on blood. He's also the man who inherited my father's massive debt.

I thought he was coming to collect. instead, he offered me a contract.

The Terms: Marry him for ninety days. Live in his glass cage of a lake house. Pretend to be the perfect, adoring wife to secure his family's merger.

The Price: If I refuse, I go to prison for my father's sins. If I run, he destroys everything I love.

I hate him. I hate his arrogance, his control, and the way he looks at me like I'm a problem to be solved. But when the lights go out, the line between hatred and obsession blurs. He watches me with a hunger that terrifies me-and a possessiveness that sets my body on fire.

Harlan Perry doesn't just want to manage the asset. He wants to own it.

But there are secrets buried in the Perry-Barnes ledger that are darker than either of us realized. As our fake marriage spirals into a very real war, I have to decide: Is Harlan my warden, or is he the only monster strong enough to save me from the wolves?

He demanded my surrender. I'm going to steal his heart.
