[Audiobook] Bound by Duty: A Marriage of Convenience Romance

Описание: She needed money to save her dying mother. He needed a wife to claim his inheritance. Neither expected to fall in love.

Claire Fitzgerald's world is crumbling. Her mother is dying, medical bills are crushing her family, and she's out of options—until billionaire Sebastian Thornwood makes her an offer she can't refuse: marry him for two years, and he'll pay for everything.

The terms are clear: separate bedrooms, no emotional entanglement, and a clean divorce when the contract ends. Sebastian needs a wife to access his grandfather's trust, nothing more. He's spent his entire life convinced he's incapable of love, building walls around his heart that no one can penetrate.

But living under the same roof changes everything.

What starts as a cold business arrangement slowly transforms into stolen glances, unexpected tenderness, and a connection neither of them planned for. Claire sees past Sebastian's icy exterior to the wounded man beneath. Sebastian discovers that the kindergarten teacher from Queens is the only person who's ever made him want to feel again.

Just as they begin to believe in their impossible love, a threat emerges that could destroy it all. The trust's trustees suspect fraud, launching an investigation that could cost Sebastian his inheritance—and Claire everything she sacrificed for.

Now they must convince the world their marriage is real while figuring out if what they feel for each other is genuine or just an elaborate performance.

Can a marriage built on a contract become a love that lasts forever?

Bound by Duty is a standalone contemporary romance featuring a grumpy billionaire who doesn't believe in love, a heroine who teaches him how to feel, steamy scenes, emotional depth, and a guaranteed happily ever after.
