The devil disguised as my personal hero. But of course, nothing is for free. Not when a soul is up for grabs.

I don't believe in fairytales. I believe in contracts. Clean exits. Ironclad terms. So when my father lays down the ultimatum—get married, have a child, and prove I'm worthy of the Westwood empire—I do what I do best. I go get what I want. She's gorgeous. Curvy. Smart-mouthed. And absolutely furious that I now own 51% of her struggling business. Lucky for her, there's room to negotiate. She wants to save her company—and have a baby.
