The Billionaire's Second-Chance Bride
READING AGE 16+
Lily Hart had one perfect day planned: her wedding, and the morning her bridal atelier, Hart & Bloom, would open its new collection. Instead, her fiancé never arrives at the altar, and creditors seize her atelier before noon. Left with debts, a mortgaged grandmother's house, and a pride that will not let her beg, Lily takes work as a hired seamstress at a charity gala — where she meets Adrian Vale again. Five years ago, Adrian was just a design student's boyfriend with big dreams. Now he is the billionaire CEO of Vale Group, and his late father's will gives him ninety days to marry or lose control of the company his father built. He offers Lily a contract: a one-year marriage, a public engagement, funding to reopen her atelier and save her grandmother's Rosewood House. No love, no promises, just paper. Lily signs — on her own terms. But living as Mrs. Vale, sharing a penthouse, a charity project, and long winter nights, turns paper into something dangerously real. When Lily discovers Adrian secretly bought her debts months before he ever offered the contract, she must decide whether he rescued her work or controlled her life. And when the contract leaks to the press, the whole world will ask the question Lily is afraid to answer: was any of it ever real? A clean, emotional billionaire romance about a woman who lost everything on her wedding day, the man who loved her before he was rich, and a second chance neither of them planned — with a wedding, this time, that has real vows.
