Contractually Yours

Elara Vance, a brilliant but emotionally guarded architect, believes in contracts over commitment. Her meticulously crafted life, built on professional success and emotional distance, crumbles when a bizarre legal clause from her late grandfather’s will forces her into a marriage of convenience with Kaelen Thorne, the ruthless, enigmatic CEO of a rival firm. This isn't just about inheritance; ancient family pacts whisper of a curse that binds two houses, making this contract far more perilous than a simple business deal. Elara must now navigate a tempestuous cohabitation, battling Kaelen's relentless charm and her own deeply ingrained fear of vulnerability. Can she protect her heart when every clause of their agreement demands a surrender she's sworn never to give, or will their forged bond ignite a passion that defies all logic and breaks the curse?
