Story

The story

For three years, Natalie has lived as the substitute wife of billionaire Ethan Cross, a stand-in for the woman he could never let go of. She survives on eighty dollars a month while living in a ten-million-dollar penthouse, budgeting for cheap bread and clearance milk. Then she discovers she is pregnant, and the cost of prenatal care pushes her to ask her husband for help.

But Bianca, Ethan's executive secretary, controls her allowance and dismisses her pregnancy as a lie. When Natalie tries to sell a birthday gift to cover medical bills, the story explodes online and Ethan accuses her of faking an ultrasound for money. Everything of value is stripped from the penthouse, and her funds are seized.

With a baby on the way and nothing left, Natalie must decide whether to keep fighting for a marriage built on another woman's shadow.

Opening excerpt

In my third year of being Ethan Cross's substitute wife, my bank account was draining faster than ever.

To make matters worse, I found out I was pregnant.

That was the final straw. I decided to get a divorce.

Whoever wants to be his little stand-in puppet can have him!

When I reached his office door, I overheard him talking to his best friend.

"Is three hundred thousand a month really not enough for a wife?"

His friend sounded completely shocked.

"She thinks three hundred grand is too little?"
