Money and Pride Novel

Betrayed by her father and forced into an unwanted marriage with a wealthy billionaire, she finds herself consumed by hatred for her family. Unable to tolerate her new husband Shawn's arrogance and cold nature, she attempts to escape the arrangement she never agreed to. When confronted about her desire to flee, she challenges his hypocrisy—questioning why he can reject their marriage while she cannot. Her defiance only provokes him further. In a moment of heated confrontation, Shawn seizes her hand and pulls her close, claiming her lips in a forceful kiss. She resists, refusing him access until he bites her lip, using her startled cry to deepen the kiss while his arms lock around her waist, trapping her against him. Caught between her pride and his dominance, she must navigate a marriage neither wanted, where hatred and unwanted passion collide.
