Terms of His Temptation: A Billionaire Workplace Romance (Fake Engagement, One Bed, High-Stakes Inheritance)

Enemies in the boardroom.

Fake fiancés by contract.

One bed between us and the inheritance clock ticking down.

August Westley is the last man I should trust too dominant, too cold, too utterly off-limits.

He signs my paychecks and sees every mistake before I make it.

My entire life depends on his approval my rent, my sister’s school, the health insurance I can’t afford to lose.

Then his family’s trust drops an ultimatum: secure a convincing domestic partnership or lose forty percent of his empire.

Suddenly, I’m not just his assistant I’m his fiancée.

Twelve weeks of galas. Staged affection. Public lies.

And a Connecticut weekend where “private suite” means only one bed.

But it’s not the silk sheets or forced smiles that undo me.

It’s the quiet moments.

The way he stands by the window at three in the morning, waiting for his son to call and doesn’t ask me to leave.

People like me don’t get fairy-tale endings with men like him.

Not when the world is ready to call me a gold-digger…

and he’s one press release away from erasing who I am.

Because if I let myself want more, I risk losing the one thing I swore I’d never give away: My story.
