BENEATH THE CONTRACT BRIDE

What sounded like a simple transaction-a well-deserved fake marriage for a year between independent, struggling journalist Emma Clarke and reclusive billionaire Adrian Cross-was basically for Adrian to require a picture-perfect wife to silence on critics and appease the board. While Emma would want cash badly to help her family out of its financial ruin, little did she know that there existed an entire subterranean world of secret chambers that lay beneath the surface of Adrian's glistening empire. Emma's investigating instincts soon detect very plausible truths that can destroy everything Adrian has built.

Concerning fictitious romance turning into some genuine emotional angle, Emma now faces an impossible choice: to expose the most compelling story she might write all career long or to protect the man she has learned to love.
