About The Temporary Wife by Catharina Maura (The Windsors Series, Book 2 of 6) – Enter a World of Fake Marriage, Billionaire Secrets, and Deep Romantic Passion That Will Steal Your Heart
Imagine working as a quiet secretary for a very rich, powerful, and grumpy boss who never smiles. Luca Windsor is a handsome billionaire who runs a giant family company. He is cold, strict, and always gets exactly what he wants. For a long time, Valentina has been his loyal assistant, keeping his busy schedule organized and hiding her own private feelings from him. She thinks she is just a normal worker in his big office, but her life changes completely when Luca’s family tries to force him to marry a strange woman he does not like at all. Luca needs a quick plan to escape this family trap, so he turns his eyes toward Valentina and makes her a shocking offer that she cannot refuse.
Luca asks Valentina to sign a secret contract to become his fake wife for a little while. He promises to give her a massive amount of money that can solve all her family problems and save her from a difficult financial situation. Valentina knows that jumping into a fake marriage with a powerful billionaire is a very dangerous game, but she needs the money to protect the people she loves. She packs her bags and moves into his giant luxury home, but they have to make a list of strict rules to keep things professional. They promise each other that they will never fall in love, that they will keep their marriage a total secret at the office, and that everything will end quietly when the contract is over.
But when you live under the same roof with someone so attractive and intense, rules start to break very easily. Every single time they have to pretend to be in love in front of the public or hold hands at big family dinners, a real spark of heat passes between them. Valentina starts to see that beneath Luca’s cold, angry shell, he hides a warm heart and a dark past that he keeps secret from the rest of the world. If you love stories filled with intense chemistry, fake relationships that turn real, secret office romances, and grand billionaire houses, then you will absolutely love this novel from the very first page. It is a beautiful and exciting tale that will keep your heart racing and make you want to read every single line without stopping.
