The Marriage Contract
(2024)(The first book in the Desires and Dilemmas series)
A novel by Ava Greene
Women come and go. They are merely playthings. A distraction.
Logan Crowe has his sights set on something bigger: the family legacy. But he knows his past dalliances follow him like a dark cloud, tarnishing his image. His ailing father can't see him running a multi-million dollar health empire. The final stipulation? Logan must be a married man before he can inherit the company.
Logan has to find some way to change his father's mind. But how? Time is running out.
Marie Gallagher has big aspirations. Working for Logan gets her foot in the door. She doesn't want to be under his thumb forever. Listening to his tirades and enduring his mood swings is a full-time job. She can handle just about anything he throws at her.
Snide comments. Irrational demands. Screaming for no reason. It's business as usual.
She just keeps reminding herself this is just temporary. There is a light at the end of a very long tunnel.
They will soon realize they don't have to like each other to get what they both want. They just have to play house. Pretend to like each other.
What could possibly go wrong? They can both benefit. But lying? That's not her strong suit.
Love isn't in the cards. It's strictly business. Or is it?
Passions are simmering. Is it an act or something else?
What do they do when fake becomes reality? Can they truly trust what they feel? Or is it an illusion built on a lie?
Genre: Romance
