Synopsis
Sera Russell was the disposable daughter of a powerful crime family — until she caught her fiancé in bed with her own sister and was immediately married off to the family’s comatose heir. But Sera, secretly a top forensic pathologist, knows the truth: Kalen isn’t brain-dead. He was drugged and confined to bed for three years, fully conscious, while his stepmother siphons away the family’s billions. A stark contract: she nurses him back to health, and he grants her protection. From a shocking breakfast wake-up to a courtroom showdown, two people trapped by their own blood are fighting to break free. When his vengeful ex returns and authorities move to lock him away, their transactional marriage becomes their only shield.
