Summary
Melisa, Anabel’s most brilliant jewel appraiser, lives for her craft. Unlike mages, she relies solely on her keen eye and skill, finding far more joy in the sparkle of a gem than the prospect of romance. Marriage? A distraction from her true passion. But when Louis Winterfeld, the enigmatic Duke of Winterfeld—a man who yearns for a genuine romantic connection—proposes a contract marriage, Melisa’s carefully constructed world is about to be turned upside down. Can a woman who shuns love find it in a purely transactional arrangement? Read chapter 1 to begin the journey!
