Touch me gently, break me slow
Eva had never imagined attending a blind date in place of her rich friend Jasmine. Jasmine, ambitious and wary of the man she was supposed to meet, refused to go-convinced he would be far too old. So Eva went in her place-and found herself staring at Alexander Thorne, London's youngest billionaire, only twenty-eight, radiating a cold, commanding presence that seemed impossible to ignore. Alexander realized there at the dinner that she wasn't jasmine,the woman he was supposed to meet. Meanwhile, his grandmother, Madame Theressa, was really pressuring him to settle down, Alexander did what he always did-handled it with logic. The first blind date had failed, and he had no intention of entertaining Clarissa Vale, the fashion designer his grandmother chose next. So he made Eva an offer instead: a three-month relationship contract, worth one million dollars. It was supposed to be simple-a business arrangement to keep his grandmother satisfied. Alexander had sworn he wouldn't fall. Yet every smile, every stubborn remark, every unguarded laugh began to chip away at the walls he'd built. What started as an obligation was turning into something dangerously real.
