One year of marriage for one million dollars… What could go wrong? Grace Morgan is a broke post-grad drowning in student loans, rejection letters, and the quiet terror of having to crawl back to her small town a failure. Waitressing at an elite kink club isn’t her dream job, but it pays the bills. Until one clumsy mistake has her spilling a drink on the wrong billionaire and getting fired on the spot. Enter the man she just soaked in whiskey. Asher Caine doesn’t date. He keeps everything controlled and impersonal. Each relationship comes with a contract and terms. No attachments. No feelings. It’s a system that’s always worked, until a new inheritance requirement threatens the controlled life he’s built. If Asher wants the family empire, he needs to get married. Grace needs money. Asher needs a wife. So he offers her a deal: one year of marriage in exchange for one million dollars. The arrangement is simple. Temporary. Fake. Until Grace gets a taste of Asher’s dominant side and pretending starts to feel dangerously real. One time turns into another. Boundaries blur. And as the end of the contract approaches, Grace is forced to decide what she’s willing to risk for the storybook romance she never meant to fall into.

Totally obsessed with Asher and Grace!! 💍💙💙
5 ⭐️♾️This exceeded my expectations and I’m literally in awe because I was hooked. Please, I need a book on each Caine sibling!!I love a good marriage of convenience, I really do, and asides from knowing that this had themes of BDSM, dom/sub dynamic, and kink exploration, and that Grace was a broke grad student, I didn’t really go into this knowing and expecting much. And I’m so glad I didn’t because this just took me by surprise in the best way; Asher completely surprised me, I was expecting for him to be this cold and callous robot towards Grace, and he was controlling, and struggled to show emotion, but he really wasn’t, there was just something about him that you could tell underneath, he wasn’t quite what his father made him out to be; he was always thoughtful and soft towards Grace, and because of that he was such a great Dom.I really loved Asher and Grace’s relationship; there was a mutual understanding and respect between them, and especially when getting to know how awful Asher’s parents are, my goddd, I’ll come onto that shortly, they really had a great chemistry and dependency, seeing Asher lean into Grace and in return, Asher introduced Grace to exploring the world of BDSM and kink, while she fell back in love with writing again. I really had a blast!!The spice was spectacular, I shouldn’t have been reading this in public lmaoo, but alas, it had me sweating and it’s not even summer yet, and for that 10/10!!Onto the Caine’s siblings parents— awful, they really were awful parents to their children. I’m hoping that this is going to be a series of the Caine siblings because I’m sat for them, no literally I need a book on each sibling because I’m so intrigued by them individually. Listen, the plot in this was twisting, and honestly my jaw was on the FLOOR because of it, it was just sooo good. And mind you, this is my first read by Natalia Lourose, and it is not going to be my last!!tropes💙 marriage of convenience💙 billionaire romance💙 bdsm 💙 dom/sub dynamic💙 praise and degradation kinkI received a complimentary copy of this book. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.

Amazing
This is the fourth book I’ve read by Natalia. The love story was perfect and the lovemaking even better. The characters were easy to imagine. Each setting in the story took me right there. It was as if I were watching a movie.This review is made by Pattie Zitricki. Michael is my husband.
