Bound by Contract

Hunter Mayhew, Hamilton’s most eligible bachelor, has everything—wealth, power, and control. At least, that’s what the world sees. But beneath his cold, calculating exterior is a man who’s spent years hiding his real feelings behind contracts and deals. And this time, his target isn’t a business acquisition, but Marcela Crale, the brilliant cancer researcher who has unknowingly captivated him for years.
Marcela never wanted to be caught in Hunter’s world—or so she made it seem. When she agrees to an iron-clad contract, supposedly to save her ailing grandmother, it looks like Hunter has forced her into his control. But the truth is far more complex. Marcela knows exactly how to push Hunter’s buttons, and as she pulls the strings, he unknowingly falls deeper into the very web she spun to draw him closer.
While Hunter believes he’s captured her, it’s Marcela who’s truly in control.
As secrets unravel and misunderstandings push them further apart, they both face a truth neither was ready their hearts have always belonged to each other.
And in this game of love and deceit, winning means losing everything they thought they knew about themselves.
