She needs a husband for thirty days. He needs a wife to claim a billion-dollar inheritance. Neither planned on love becoming part of the bargain.
Mira Ellery will do anything to save her late grandmother's beloved bookstore, even marry a man she barely knows. Ronan Ardellane is controlled, calculating, and accustomed to getting exactly what he wants. When his grandfather's final conditions threaten his future, Ronan offers Mira a contract: become his wife for thirty days, help him secure his inheritance, and receive enough money to protect the bookstore forever.
The arrangement should be simple. Smile for the cameras. Convince Ronan's powerful family. Keep their growing attraction out of the agreement. But forced proximity reveals the man beneath Ronan's ruthless reputation and the woman who refuses to be treated like another acquisition.
As buried family secrets connect Mira's inheritance to the Ardellane empire, their convenient marriage becomes the center of a dangerous conspiracy. Someone is determined to destroy Ronan, take the company, and silence anyone who uncovers the truth. Now Mira and Ronan must decide whether the vows they made for business are worth risking everything to make real.
The Ardellane CEO's Thirty-Day Wife is a contemporary billionaire romance featuring a fake marriage, forced proximity, a fiercely independent Black heroine, a protective Black billionaire, family secrets, romantic suspense, and a hard-won happily ever after.
