“BLURB/ SYNOPSIS "Sir Sterling McLain, I'm not a child. I'm a grown adult, capable of making my own decisions. I don't need a wife. Can't you understand that?" Brent's deep voice echoed through the mansion, his words laced with frustration. Sterling's smile was sly and calculating. "Ah, but that's where you're wrong, my son. You need a wife, and I've found the perfect one for you." Brent's eyes narrowed as he gazed at the young woman standing before him. Vanessa. His bride-to-be. He couldn't believe his father's audacity. Sterling continued, "You'll be wedded to her in three days. No questions, no arguments. You'll make this work, Brent." With that, Sterling exited the room, leaving Brent and Vanessa in an awkward silence. Brent's gaze raked over Vanessa, taking in her stunning features and lithe figure. She was beautiful, but he was furious. "What's your name?" he asked gruffly. "Vanessa," she replied in a soft, babyish voice that grated on his nerves. "Jesu, I'm doomed," Brent muttered, his hands flying to his head in exasperation. ....... When Brent, a successful businessman, is forced by his father to marry Vanessa, a beautiful young debutante, he is furious. But as he gets to know her, he discovers a hidden strength and determination that intrigues him. As they navigate their arranged marriage, they must confront their demons and confront the secrets that threaten to tear them apart. Will their forced union blossom into love, or will it end in disaster?”
