THE BILLIONAIRE'S RELUCTANT BRIDE

One coffee spill. One impossible offer. One year that changes everything. Emma Laurent's life is falling apart. At twenty-five, she's just been fired from her dream architecture job, she's drowning in student debt, and her grandmother's medical bills are piling up faster than she can count. With fourteen dollars in her bank account and no prospects, she's officially out of options. Then she collides—literally—with Alexander Sterling. Billionaire. CEO. Devastatingly handsome. And completely off-limits. Their disastrous first meeting ends with his expensive suit ruined and Emma's dignity in tatters. She expects anger. A dry-cleaning bill she can't afford. Instead, he makes her an offer that sounds insane: marry him for one year, and he'll pay her two million dollars. The deal is simple: One year of marriage. Separate bedrooms. Play the loving wife in public, stay strangers in private. Two million dollars when it's over. No messy emotions. No expectations of love. Alexander doesn't want romance—he wants control. Five years ago, his ex-fiancée left him at the altar in a scandal that turned him into a man who trusts contracts more than hearts. He needs a wife to satisfy his business partners, and Emma, desperate and brilliant, is perfect for a temporary arrangement. What could possibly go wrong? Everything. From their City Hall wedding to the moment Emma steps into Alexander's penthouse, the carefully drawn boundaries begin to blur. He notices how she takes her coffee. She discovers the nightmares that haunt him. He buys her a wedding ring engraved with words that matter. She learns that beneath his cold exterior is a man carrying the weight of devastating loss—a dead brother, a broken engagement, and walls built so high even he can't see over them. They're not supposed to care. But caring doesn't follow contracts. As Emma navigates the ruthless world of New York's elite—where Alexander's manipulative ex circles like a predator and every smile is a weapon—she realizes her emotionally guarded husband isn't cold at all. He's catastrophically broken. And despite knowing better, she wants to help him heal. Alexander, meanwhile, discovers that the woman he hired is dangerously real. Her strength undoes him. Her presence fills spaces in his life he didn't know were empty. She's awakening something he thought died years ago: hope. But their contract has an expiration date. When shadows from their pasts resurface—betrayals, threats, and impossible choices—Emma and Alexander face the hardest question of all: Can something that started as fake become the most real thing they've ever known? Because the most dangerous part of a marriage of convenience isn't the arrangement. It's falling in love when you know exactly when it has to end. Perfect for fans of marriage of convenience, slow-burn billionaire romance, and couples who heal each other while falling impossibly in love. One contract. Twelve months. Forever consequences.

Surviving A Novel I Don't Remember: A Tutor's Guide To Staying Alive

"If I can just stay under the radar, I might survive the final chapter." Kim Jowoon woke up in a novel world as the illegitimate fourth son of a marquis, Julian Von Astrea, and it looked like every single character hated him. It was a world where everyone looked like a protagonist—shining eyes, tragic backstories, destiny practically dripping off them. Everyone except him. He didn't even get a script. Then the Affection System popped up and crushed his hopes in one clean line of text: every so-called “hero” in the capital had a solid 0% interest in his continued existence. Naturally, Julian did the most reasonable thing possible—he ran. Straight into the safest job he could think of: tutoring the young son of the Empire's most reclusive (and famously cold) Duke. The plan was foolproof. Win over the kid, stay invisible, collect a fat paycheck, and live long enough to die of old age instead of plot relevance. It didn't go smoothly at first. The child never spoke, the Duke barely appeared, and Julian briefly wondered if he'd chosen the wrong kind of death. But somehow… it worked. The Duke's son quickly warmed up to him. Lessons became warm and fun moments, and silence turned into trust. And even stranger, the Duke's affection level didn't just rise—it skyrocketed into something Julian absolutely had not planned for. For the first time since transmigrating, he felt safe. Then the Emperor began to interfere, so much that he became a madman to Julian. Julian thought he could live quietly. Well... He thought wrong. In this world, his life was never meant to be quiet and everything revolves around him.
