Married for 120 Days

Desperate times call for desperate measures, and for the once-proud Ellouise Starwood, the clock is ticking. With her aristocratic family’s fortune in tatters and her adopted niece, Juliet, relying solely on her, Ellouise must secure a future for the young girl. Her only hope lies in the bustling city of Cliff, a place where social standing is less rigid, and a suitable match for Juliet might be found. Enter Marcus Hanger, the charming but notorious heir to a burgeoning mining empire. Sent to Cliff after a string of scandalous affairs, Marcus finds himself captivated by the elusive Duchess Bellona. The catch? The Duchess only entertains married men or the very young. Believing Bellona to be his destined love, Marcus proposes an audacious solution: a 120-day contract marriage with Ellouise. In exchange for a temporary title and a safe haven for her and Juliet, Ellouise agrees to be his ‘wife’ while he pursues his romantic conquest. But as their lives intertwine, will this marriage of convenience lead to unexpected complications, or perhaps even something more? Dive into chapter 1 to uncover the secrets of their 120-day union!
