Married to My Brother’s Enemy

My fiancé publicly abandoned me at a pool party, gave the wedding dress I designed to my stepsister, and stood by and watched her splash red wine all over me. Hours later, I woke up in the arms of Lucas Black, my brother’s most hated rival. Before I could escape, he took me to city hall and made me his secretly-wedded wife. I thought this three-month marriage was nothing but his scheme to get back at my brother, until I discovered an entire wall filled with decade-old design clippings, photos, and records of my works. It turned out Lucas had not acted on impulse; he had loved me long before I ever knew him. Yet the stolen wedding dress, a sudden fake fiancée, and a fatal text message threw everything into doubt. On the night my stepsister tried to destroy my final wedding dress collection, I will walk the runway in a wedding dress reborn from ruin, and force my secret husband to prove in public whether I am merely a contract—or his only choice.
