Unexpectedly Yours

Just beyond the glitz of the French Riviera lies a hidden sanctuary where modern technology meets ancient guardianship. Elise Moreau is its chief—a woman who balances online shopping with the ruthless execution of those who threaten her community’s secrets. To repel a persistent billionaire and his $20 million bride price, Elise drafts a mysterious, injured stranger into a high-stakes game of fake matrimony and aphrodisiac-fueled seduction. But as waltzes and bonfire rituals blur the line between strategy and desire, a web of betrayal begins to tighten. In a world where city greed clashes with tribal grit, Elise must prove that some treasures are protected by blood, and some vows are meant to be broken.
