The Billionaire’s No-Love Clause

Lawrence Ashford built his empire on control. His secret marriage is supposed to follow the same rules: every luxury, undeniable chemistry, and absolutely no love. For designer Veronica Nolan, the arrangement is easy—until the husband who keeps his heart locked away starts acting like he cannot bear to lose her. A rival’s attention sparks jealousy. Quiet gestures become impossible to dismiss. And the boundaries that once kept their marriage simple begin to feel like a cage. Veronica refuses to mistake possession for devotion, forcing Lawrence to confront what he has spent a lifetime avoiding. He can hold her to an agreement, or offer her something no contract can guarantee: a love freely chosen. The only clause he never planned to break is the one his heart will not obey.
