One choice. Thirty days. An empire - or her freedom.
On a rain-soaked morning, Stella Maxwell steps off a plane in Lagos for the first time in ten years - not to grieve, but to claim. Her father is dead, his $2.3 billion empire waiting. All she has to do is take it.
Then she reads the clause.
Married within thirty days. Or the board takes everything.
So begins a story told across contracts and confessions, signed papers and stolen moments - as Stella Maxwell, razor-sharp and emotionally armored, does the most dangerous thing a woman like her can do: she proposes to a stranger.
Jason Khalid is self-made, controlled, and carrying wounds he's never named. Their arrangement is clean. Temporary. Strategic.
Except strategy doesn't explain the way he looks at her. And it doesn't prepare her for what happens when performance starts to feel like the truest thing either of them has ever done.
A propulsive, emotionally charged read for fans of People We Meet on Vacation and The Spanish Love Deception.
