Summary

He tilted her chin up, forcing her to hold his gaze. "I'm gonna make you come all over my fingers first, baby. Gonna finger-fuck that tight little cunt until your legs shake... then flood that brilliant doctor brain of yours with so much dopamine you forget your own fucking name, Doctor Watson." "Oh my god," Lydia gulped. ________ Lydia Watson is a dedicated junior doctor with one goal: escaping England to secure a medical residency in America and Adrian Rivera is a cold blooded billionaire CEO in Manhattan who cares more about his multi-billion dollar Hudson infrastructure contract than his own reputation. They have two things in common: they've despised each other since they were children, and they both have grandmothers who are master manipulators. When a Grandmaster Gambit fueled by emotional blackmail and a dying wish forces them into a legally binding marriage, they strike a deal. For thirty days, they will play the part of the doting, reunited childhood sweethearts for the press and their families. The Rules are simple 1. Maintain the image of a "blissfully happy" couple in public. 2. Behind closed doors, remain strictly platonic roommates with at least six inches of distance. 3. No catching feelings. But between the luxury of a Tribeca penthouse, the interference of a jealous socialite ex, and the high stakes pressure of the medical boards, the "six-inch rule" starts to feel impossible. In a world of pretense, Lydia and Adrian are about to find out that the only thing more dangerous than their contract is the catastrophic friction of their own hearts.
