“MARRIED BY MIDNIGHT A slow-burn billionaire romance full of heat, heart, and one accidental "I do." Sloane Hart thought landing a job as executive assistant to Manhattan's most powerful CEO would change her life. She just didn't expect it to change her last name. Grayson Astor is cold, calculating, and wildly irresistible the kind of man who never makes mistakes. Until a company retreat in Vegas ends with a hangover, a diamond ring, and a marriage certificate that says otherwise. To protect a high-stakes merger and avoid a media firestorm, they strike a deal: stay married for one year. No feelings. No complications. Just perfectly staged photo ops and a signed NDA. But pretending to be in love gets complicated when real emotions slip through the crack especially in late-night boardrooms, shared penthouses, and stolen glances that burn hotter than they should. She's sunshine and sarcasm. He's ice and restraint. The more they fake it, the more real it feels. And the closer midnight comes, the harder it is to walk away.”
