Married to the Cold-Hearted Billionaire

Elena Blake never imagined that her life would spiral into a nightmare of betrayal and secrets the day she walked down the aisle. Beautiful, smart, and fiercely independent, Elena thought she was marrying the man of her dreams — until her fiancé, Lucas Sterling, the enigmatic billionaire CEO, abandoned her at the altar with no explanation. Devastated and humiliated, Elena is left to pick up the shattered pieces of her life. Determined to reclaim her dignity, she vows never to be a victim again. But when Lucas unexpectedly reappears, cold and distant as ever, offering a mysterious contract marriage proposal, Elena faces a choice that could either heal her broken heart or destroy it forever. Lucas Sterling is a man shrouded in secrets. A self-made billionaire with an icy demeanor, he rules his empire with an iron fist and trusts no one. Behind his cold exterior lies a tragic past — one that forced him to close off his emotions and prioritize power over love. His reasons for jilting Elena are buried in shadows of corporate betrayal and family betrayal that threaten everything he’s built. Yet, beneath the surface, Lucas still feels the pull of the woman he left behind. The contract marriage is more than a business deal — it’s a chance at redemption, a desperate attempt to protect Elena from enemies lurking in the dark, and perhaps, a way to reclaim the love he lost. As Elena steps into this new life by Lucas’s side, she discovers a world of luxury, power struggles, and hidden agendas. Surrounded by ruthless business rivals, scheming family members, and dark secrets, Elena must navigate the dangerous game of wealth and influence. But she is no longer the naive woman who said “I do” that fateful day. With fierce determination, Elena fights to protect herself and her heart. Along the way, she uncovers painful truths about Lucas’s past — a childhood scarred by loss, a betrayal so deep it nearly destroyed him, and a secret baby hidden from the world. As they clash and collide in a tumultuous relationship, passion ignites in the cracks of their fractured trust. Together, they face challenges that test their fragile alliance. From boardroom battles to personal vendettas, Elena and Lucas must learn to trust each other — or risk losing everything to the darkness that threatens to consume them both. But love is never simple in the world of billionaires. As Elena unravels the layers of Lucas’s cold heart, she realizes that the man she thought she knew is much more complicated — and vulnerable — than she imagined. And in the end, it will take more than money and power to mend the wounds between them. Married to the Cold-Hearted Billionaire is a gripping tale of love, betrayal, revenge, and redemption — a modern romance that explores the complexities of trust, the price of ambition, and the healing power of second chances.
