UNEXPECTEDLY THE BILLIONAIRE'S WIFE

From the back cover

All Layla Anderson wanted was a way to help her dad.

He's in prison, chasing redemption for the mess he made and she's doing everything she can to save enough for his bail. She never expected her chance would come from her wealthy friend, Victoria Whitmore, who offers her $40,000 to crash her wedding and stir up scandal.

The plan? Walk into the church, drop a lie, walk out. Easy.

Until Layla claims she's pregnant with the groom's child.

Julian Bennett, quiet, sharp, and heir to a fortune doesn't take the accusation lightly. But instead of exposing her, he shows up with a proposition: if her lie was that believable, why not make it useful? A fake relationship. Public enough to cause a stir. Private enough to stay in control.

Only......, control starts slipping fast.

What began as a transaction slowly becomes something more. Julian's world is nothing like Layla's, but his family feels warmer than she expected, and his presence steadier than she ever imagined. For the first time in a long time, she feels seen. Safe. Maybe even wanted.

But life doesn't just let you rewrite your story.

And when the past Layla ran from starts catching up, she'll have to face the hardest question of all: Can you build something real on a foundation of lies??
