After a devastating fire destroys her home and takes her beloved grandfather, Roz sits vulnerable and alone. Adam Milroy, newly divorced and skeptical of romance, offers her a deal: a marriage of convenience that promises security and a polished public presence. Roz, who once fantasized about the stoic man, now must navigate the delicate balance between duty and affection in a contemporary setting shaped by grief and modern expectations. As the two build a life around obligation and hidden feelings, they confront the realities of their pasts and the possibility of genuine connection. The novel explores the complexities of contractual marriage, the weight of loss, and the aching hope for true love amid contemporary pressures.

 by Lindsay Armstrong

Why did you marry me?" Cathy's voice was accusing. "You shut me out of every part of your life except your bed and your home. You don't share any of your dreams with me." When she married glamorous film director Tom West, Cathy had been very young, but very much in love with him. Now, two years later, Tom's casual affection was no longer enough. She wanted the whole man--to share his triumphs and his failures. Cathy was determined to fight for her happiness, although she stood to lose everything--especially with Tom's old love, Bronwen, waiting in the wings. But this time, at least, the director's wife would control the final scene....
