Sterling Hearts

A Billionaire Romance with a Twist

Story Description:
When cold and calculated CEO Vincent Sterling needs a wife for business purposes, fate delivers Bree Monroe—a vulnerable but resilient woman thrown out of a moving car by the fiancé she gave everything up for. What starts as a contractual marriage of convenience slowly unravels into something neither of them expected: healing, trust, and a love worth fighting for.

As Vincent begins to protect Bree from the shadows of her past, including the dangerous influence of ex-fiancé Nick and powerful rival Marcus, she finds the strength to reclaim her voice—and he discovers that control means nothing without her. But in a world built on power plays and broken promises, love comes at the highest price.
