Contract Husband, Secret Billionaire

Nora Whitmore, heiress of the prestigious Ellsworth family, is crushed when her fiancé Reid doesn't show up to their wedding and instead sends a prenup and a photo of himself with his mistress. Determined to salvage her dignity, Nora marries Cole, a man she has just met at the courthouse and takes for an ordinary stranger. Her act of defiance soon gets complicated as Cole shows signs of money and influence that don't fit his supposedly modest life.

When Cole's identity comes out at a family gathering, Nora discovers he is the heir to Bancroft Holdings and the boy who comforted her in her grief when they were children. He had searched for her for years and arranged their meeting through Reid's courier service. At the same time, Nora learns that her stepmother Diane has been steadily stealing from the family business, and Cole uses his resources and evidence to expose the huge fraud, tearing down Diane's criminal network and everyone who schemed against Nora.

With her enemies defeated and her rightful place as head of Ellsworth Enterprises secured, Nora realizes her accidental husband has not only rescued her but is also her first love. Cole proposes under a sky lit by fireworks, and they marry a second time, now by choice, celebrating both their victory and an old promise finally kept.
