MARRIED TO A STRANGER : THE BILLIONAIRE'S BRIDE
“BLURB Gold Bennett thought she had it all, until the man she'd loved and supported through law school shattered her world. Jason, her charming, ambitious boyfriend, had promised they'd build a life together. But when a rich heiress comes into the picture, he doesn't hesitate to abandon Gold, leaving her heartbroken and lost. The man who once claimed he'd never leave her now has a new fiancée, and Gold is left to pick up the pieces of a future she had built around him.Devastated and burned by betrayal, Gold is done with love. But when a cold, calculating billionaire named Daniel Copper offers her a way out of her grief, she reluctantly agrees to a marriage of convenience. It's a practical solution to her pain, or so she thinks. After all, Daniel is a stranger,handsome, yes, but distant, with an air of mystery that warns her to keep her distance. He needs a wife to settle a score, and she needs a way to reclaim her life.But as the days go by, what begins as a contract quickly turns into something far more complicated. Beneath Daniel's icy exterior lies a man who has his own reasons for wanting her by his side. Despite their agreement, sparks begin to fly, and Gold finds herself drawn to him in ways she never expected. As they navigate their new life together, Gold realizes that Daniel isn't just the CEO of a billion-dollar empire, he's also carrying a past as dark and tangled as her own. And when their marriage starts to feel less like a business deal and more like something real, she's torn between what she wants and what she's afraid of.But just as their relationship begins to shift, Jason reappears, determined to win Gold back. The game of love, revenge, and trust gets more dangerous, and Gold must decide whether she can trust Daniel with her heart,or if he, too, will betray her when she least expects it.In a world where love is a battlefield and trust is fragile, will Gold's second chance at love be her salvation? Or will her past come back to haunt her when she least expects it?”
