One desperate contract. One dangerous husband.
To erase her family’s crushing debt, Juliette marries a terminally ill inmate in a secret prison wedding. His wealthy relatives offer millions—enough to save her parents, with no strings attached.
But when Roman’s conviction is overturned and he walks free, he demands the one thing Juliette never planned to give: a real marriage. What started as a cold transaction turns into a dangerous entanglement as secrets unravel, past sins return, and feelings neither of them expected begin to surface.
