Synopsis
“You will have to marry me and bear me a child.”
“What the fuck?!” Logic flew out of the window when Grace heard him say that. “Excuse me, what did you just say?”
Maybe, she was the one who had heard him wrong. It could have been anything except marrying him and giving him a child.
“You heard me,” Christian tsked, “but I’ll repeat it. Marry me and have my child.”
Her mouth opened and gaped at me. In her mind, she was trying to make sense about what was going on. How in the world had it come to be? What in the world could make the situation come to this?!
“No?” Grace replied, but then realized that the word was not firm enough. “No.” she said again.
Christian frowned, and it seemed so innocent like he had not asked her the most unbelievable thing. “Why not? I thought you wanted to help me. You offered.”
“I offered my help, my brain, my support not my,” she hesitated, “stomach!”
What was the word for it?
“Womb,” he provided.
“Yes!” She slapped her hand on the table. “You don’t get my womb!”
“I don’t?” He challenged.
“No!”
“What if helping me out means Lorelai coming out of a coma?”
Grace felt her heart drop. “What?”
Christian nodded. “What if helping me out, agreeing to what you have to do for me, means bringing your grandmother out of the, that she is in?”
********
Grace was one strong girl and with the people she put her trust in, that was only a small number, she knew she could conquer the world, or at least she thought to herself.
When her best friend proposed a deal that could change their lives, she made a decision that was going to be mutually beneficial to both of them.
But one renovation led to many and everything has been just a game, a manipulation from him. Everything was full of deceit, lies, planning and plotting against her. Every single thing, right down the fact that only he had been her friend…
Everything was a lie and she had been living it, willingly.
Tropes; Friends to lovers, office romance, best friends, frenemies, marriage of convenience, possessive villainous and morally gray heroes!

Write a reviewI’ve come across with some of your books. I must say they are captivating and great stories. My only problem is, it is hard to follow and understand what’s being elaborated. There are so many errors, grammatically and spelling wise. There are so many times that I’m lost in understanding what you are trying to write because the way it’s written doesn’t make any sense. I would really love to read and actually finish reading the whole book. Your stories have great potential to be a remarkable ones if only, it isn’t so hard to read. Maybe you can use the Grammarly App to help you to edit your writing. That way it will be more comprehensible to follow your story.
The writing quality isn't bad, but some words aren't used within their usual English usages, although their definitions aren't wrong for the meaning. The story starts out grim, and though it moves along well, I think the main character might have lived more happily if she'd run away in the first chapter. I hope she makes it to a happy ending. Easy to follow, heart wrenching, glimpses of riches beyond our grasp, glimpses of corruption most of us don't have to rub up against. Good luck to all, characters and readers.
