Sadie
For three years, I thought I knew Lucien Sokolov.
Then I married him—and discovered I didn’t know a damn thing.
Our marriage should’ve been a drunken joke followed by a very quick annulment.
Lucien had other ideas.
The deal: one year as his wife, one heir, and enough money to give my brother a chance to walk again.
Then a journalist appears at my apartment before sunrise.
He knows about the money Lucien sent to my brother’s clinic.
He thinks Lucien’s older brother didn’t die in an accident, and he leaves me with a USB drive my husband can never know I have.
Now I’m living under his roof, playing his devoted wife for the cameras, and falling for the twin nieces who already seem to think I belong. Worse, I’m beginning to fall for Lucien—the controlled, ruthless husband whose touches linger, whose protection feels dangerously like possession, and who says wife as if letting me go was never an option.
But Lucien isn’t the only one with secrets.
I’m still hiding the scars of a past that nearly destroyed my family. And somewhere inside Lucien’s powerful bloodline, someone is hiding the truth about his brother’s murder.
The closer we get to that truth, the more dangerous our marriage becomes.
Someone wants the Sokolov throne. Someone believes I can be used against Lucien. And my husband has made one thing brutally clear:
He will burn his own empire before he lets anyone take me.
I married Lucien to save my brother.
I’m supposed to leave him when our year is over.
But can I—when one look from him sets me on fire, one touch makes me forget every rule, and belonging to him no longer feels like a sacrifice?
Our marriage has an expiration date.
My heart may not.
