Bad Boy Husband

I don’t believe in happily ever after.

I believe in strategy. Leverage. Control.

So when my father lays down his favorite ultimatum—get married, have a child, and prove I’m worthy of the Westwood legacy—I already know how to win.

I go back to the one girl I never got over.

Red hair. Smart mouth. Big heart.

And a body I’ve explored in my dreams for years.

She shattered me years ago—and now runs herself ragged rescuing stray dogs instead of running in the billionaire circles she was born into.

She needs funding for her foundations.

I need a wife on paper.

A deal between us makes perfect sense.

Except nothing...

I need a wife on paper.

A deal between us makes perfect sense.

Except nothing about my soon-to-be wife has ever been simple.

She drags slobbering mutts into my spotless house. She leaves muddy paw prints across my marble floors. She tests every rule I’ve ever lived by.

And worse… she still knows exactly how to make me sweat.

Now I’m pretending to be a devoted husband in public, cleaning up after animals in private, and breaking every boundary I swore I’d never cross again.

I built my reputation on keeping it clean.

But falling for my messy, beautiful fake wife?

That’s a disaster I can’t walk away from twice.
