The Promises We Break

Ember

It was supposed to be one night with one incredibly handsome stranger. A night of giving into temptation and forgetting all my inhibitions. Instead, it ends with wedding vows and promises of “I do”.

But it turns out, this is exactly what we need for the sake of both our blooming careers. Especially after my new boss tasks me with the opening of a hot new lifestyle club.

Hudson needs me to wear the title of wife for the benefit of his career, and I need him to teach me the lifestyle to solidify mine. Adding sex lessons to our agreement surely won’t complicate things, right?

We’re blurring the lines of business and pleasure, unable to avoid the contagious desire between us. But I need to keep this strictly professional and emotion-free; it’s the only way I can get through it.

Forever is not what I signed up for, and there is no other way that this can end except with divorce papers and broken promises.

Hudson

I am never letting her go.

One year.

I have one year to convince her that our future is forever.

The Promises We Break is a Marriage of Convenience Romance and an interconnected standalone in the Balance of Power book series. You do not need to read any prior books, but it's always recommended. As usual, please check TW's before reading.
