I don't believe in fairytales. I believe in contracts. Clean exits. Ironclad terms. So when my father lays down the ultimatum—get married, have a child, and prove I'm worthy of the Westwood empire—I do what I do best. I go get what I want. She's gorgeous. Curvy. Smart-mouthed. And absolutely furious that I now own 51% of her struggling business. Lucky for her, there's room to negotiate. She wants to save her company—and have a baby. I want my inheritance—and zero romantic entanglements. One year. One baby. No feelings. Just signatures.

I don't believe in happily ever after. I believe in strategy. Leverage. Control. So when my father lays down his favorite ultimatum—get married, have a child, and prove I'm worthy of the Westwood legacy—I already know how to win. I go back to the one girl I never got over.

I don't believe in mercy. I believe in winning before the other side realizes the game has started. So when my father decides my future needs to be sealed with a marriage to secure the Westwood empire's next century, I don't hesitate. I accept the deal. She's kryptonite. Brilliant. Untouchable...

I don't believe in love stories. I believe in keeping my back to the wall and my emotions locked down tight. I built my name on discipline—on being the Westwood who never lets anyone close enough to matter. Which is precisely why I can't stand her. She walks into a room like she owns it and...
