Elise Sinclair has spent years protecting her family's beloved fashion boutique, but now everything she inherited is being threatened.Jared Collins, a ruthless corporate predator, wants the boutique's property and brand. With debts piling up and the Sinclair Trust locked behind a legal condition, Elise needs a husband to unlock the financial protection her family once established.She doesn't need love.She needs a shield.Marcus Whitlock seems perfect for the role. Quiet, dependable, modest, and apparently ordinary, he works a conventional job and appears to have no interest in the glamorous world surrounding Elise. She offers him a generous payment in exchange for a one-year marriage of convenience.Separate lives. A legal union. One year. Then they walk away.Marcus agrees.But Elise quickly discovers that the man she dismissed as an insignificant middle manager is far more complicated than he appears. He is calm when danger approaches, observant when others are careless, and strangely protective of her. Meanwhile, Jared becomes increasingly aggressive, determined to force Elise into surrendering the boutique.Their temporary marriage begins to feel less temporary.As Elise and Marcus spend more time together, small moments of trust turn into genuine intimacy. The boundaries they created become harder to maintain, and Elise begins to wonder whether the man she hired to protect her is becoming the person she actually wants beside her.Then the danger escalates.Jared threatens Elise's business, her financial future, and eventually Marcus himself. The pressure forces Elise to confront the uncomfortable truth that she has placed a decent man in the middle of a war he never asked for.But Marcus refuses to walk away.When powerful enemies attempt to manipulate Elise into selling the boutique, she realizes that Marcus's quiet exterior has always concealed a strength she never expected. He is not merely a temporary husband standing beside her for a paycheck. He has become the one person willing to stand beside her when everyone else is calculating what she is worth.Their contract was supposed to end after 365 days.Their feelings have no expiration date.As secrets surrounding the Sinclair Trust and Jared's scheme are uncovered, Elise must decide whether she can trust the man she originally treated as a convenient solution. Marcus, meanwhile, must prove that his commitment to her is not another transaction.Because sometimes the person you marry for protection becomes the person you cannot imagine living without.My Temporary Husband's Permanent Heart is a marriage-of-convenience romance filled with corporate threats, hidden strength, emotional tension, and the discovery that a temporary arrangement can create something permanent.
