A marriage built on lies and a Daddy who always gets what he wants…
Love has never interested Vance Ashford. Romance is a distraction he never allowed himself to indulge. He never planned to marry—until his father made it the price of his inheritance. Now he has until his fortieth birthday or he’ll lose control of the family’s billion-dollar empire.
Failure isn’t an option… but Sophia Bennett is.
Brilliant, ambitious, and on the verge of becoming the Ashford Group’s youngest Vice President, she is the last woman who would ever agree to be Vance’s wife. So he doesn''t give her the choice. With one signature, he takes her freedom and her future—binding her life to his.
Living under his rule, smiling for Chicago’s cameras, and playing the role of the city’s newest power couple, Sophia searches for a way to escape the man who trapped her.
Only, Vance Ashford doesn’t care if she hates him—he has no intention of ever letting her go.
If Sophia is going to wear his ring and carry his name, he’s going to make sure she’s his wife in every sense of the word.
She’s going to make him a Daddy… in more ways than one.
