He planned how to make her fall for him.
He never planned on falling harder...
Everly Halliday has spent her entire life being underestimated.
So when her grandfather’s will leaves the building she loves tied up in an impossible condition, she refuses to let anyone else decide her future.
Especially Grayson West. Devastatingly handsome. Cold. Controlled. Brilliantly successful.
And the stranger who needs her building badly enough to offer her a marriage of convenience.
But... he listens. He remembers. He shows up. He asks about the dreams no one else takes seriously. And little by little, Everly begins to believe that beneath the ruthless businessman is a man who truly sees her.
She trusts him. She falls in love with him. She marries him.
And then she discovers the devastating truth...
But somewhere along the way, Grayson stopped wanting the deal.
He started wanting his wife.
Now the man who calculated every move has no strategy left. No leverage. No carefully constructed plan that can undo what he’s done.
Everly gave him her trust once. If Grayson wants it again, he’ll have to earn it.
A deeply emotional, high-angst contemporary romance about an arranged marriage built on deception, devastating betrayal, hard-won trust, and a calculating man forced to prove that the love he never planned for became the only thing that mattered.
