The Billionaire's Devotion

(Excerpt—) Their faces were still inches apart, breaths entangling. Instead of her lips, he kissed her on the cheek before pulling away to look at her. She wasn't looking at him anymore. She had trained her eyes on the view outside the window. "We could try again," Jacob said. "I don't know what you want from me." Sutton replied in a quiet voice. "I'll keep my word this time around. Six months and I'll set you free, Sutton Price."  Sutton wasn't listening anymore. Something else was on her mind. She brought her eyes to him again, and her next words were not what he expected.

A marriage of inconvenience seems to be his only way out of it, but nothing goes according to plan. Sutton is a wealthy heiress broken badly from her past; a past that ties her with the billionaire devil Jacob, even before they meet...

                        Sutton Price

Jacob hadn't come home since the night they were together. She would know because she stayed in their new home and waited the whole day for him. She expected him to come home later that day because it was Jace's burial day the next, but he was still nowhere to be found. She had tried calling him the entire day, but he had taken none of her calls and still didn't call back yet. Sutton was worried. She hoped he didn't crash himself into a tree or do something worse to himself. He was still nowhere near going back to his former self.
