About this ebook

Jacob Chambers has two redeeming qualities: he’s breathtakingly sexy, and he’s sensationally rich.

Neither one makes up for the fact that he’s a monster. 

As penance for his past, he’ll be the young, beautiful Catherine Bettencourt’s fake fiancé until she can access her trust fund and leave him behind. 

She doesn’t need to know how he punishes himself for his shortcomings. He’ll never tell her how he suffers in silence.

Catherine Bettencourt doesn’t want a wedding, thank you very much. Becoming a rich man’s wife can be a deadly affair.

But when mysterious forces threaten the only man who has ever protected her, the choice is clear.

She’ll walk down the aisle with him. She’ll take him as her husband, for richer or for poorer. In sickness and in health.

She’ll never fall in love with Jacob Chambers. Til death do them part.

Ratings and reviews

This is the first book of the year for me and it was so freaking good. I am never disappointed with Amelia’s books. She always keeps me hooked from the beginning to the end and leaves me wanting more. My oh my do I want more. I need the second book to this duet now. Jacob and Catherine’s story was so good. It is filled with guilt, suspense, drama, spiciness, regret, lust, love, and twists that left me shocked. Jacob and Cat have a relationship of convenience that become more than convenience.

Jacob and Catherine's romance gets off to a sinfully enticing start. This amazing couple has me deeply invested, completely consumed and left me anxiously craving more. Intense feelings, raw emotions and sultry heat are brewing between this couple and when paired with the exquisite combination of taut tension, juicy drama and tantalizing twists you have yourself the beginnings of an irresistible romance that is sure to be your new addiction. I need book two ASAP!
