Ninety-two days before our marriage contract ends, I hear my billionaire husband promise his first wife that I will be gone by Christmas.
I married Sebastian Rourke for one year.
No love. Separate bedrooms. Public appearances when required. A quiet divorce after he gained control of his family’s hotel empire.
Then I made the worst mistake of my life.
I fell in love with him.
When Sebastian calls our one night together a mistake, I stop waiting for him to choose me. I remove his ring, accept a powerful job from his greatest rival, and begin building a hotel empire of my own.
But Sebastian does more than break my heart.
He lets his company investigate me. He allows strangers to search my private life. And when I am publicly accused of stealing from him, my husband asks me to prove I am innocent.
So I divorce him.
Now his dangerous first wife is back. His ruthless family wants me destroyed. His billionaire rival wants my heart. And I hold evidence that could bring the entire Rourke empire to its knees.
Sebastian says he finally believes me.
He gives up his title, his fortune, and the power he once chose over our marriage. But a billionaire’s public grovel cannot erase a private betrayal.
He planned to divorce me.
Now he wants another chance.
This time, I control the terms.
