I don’t believe love should be left to chance. It’s irresponsible.
Not when the right marriage could restore my family’s reputation, secure our future, and give me something I’ve quietly wanted for years.
So I ask for help finding a wife.
I expect introductions, negotiations, and a sensible agreement.
I don’t expect her.
The stunning woman with long black hair, golden-brown eyes, and enough confidence to dismantle every carefully constructed thought in my head.
There’s just one problem.
Her father isn’t impressed by my money, my career, or my last name.
If I want his daughter, I have to earn her.
One chance.
One impossible family.
And one woman who’s making it dangerously easy to forget this marriage was ever supposed to be business.
Now my family’s past is threatening everything I’ve worked for, and the future I’ve started dreaming about is slipping through my fingers.
Failure isn’t an option.
Because I didn’t cross an ocean just to lose the only woman who’s ever truly felt like home.
