One wild night in Vegas. One gold ring. One plus sign.
Brielle Carter wakes to a stranger in her bed—and a marriage certificate with her name on it.

Grant Maddox lives by rules and clean exits; Brielle is the beautiful disaster who scrambles his careful life. They agree to annul and forget—until a pregnancy test turns positive and a tiny heartbeat drowns out every plan. Now the man who swears he doesn't do forever is showing up with steady hands, spare keys, and a promise she's afraid to trust. Co-parenting becomes close quarters, house keys become hope, and desire keeps rewriting the rules neither of them will admit they're following.

As families meddle, secrets surface, and an old life claws back, Brielle must decide if the man she married by accident is the one she can choose on purpose. He can buy cities; she holds the one thing he never thought he'd want. Annulment or always? In this age-gap, one-night-stand-gone-wrong-and-so-right romance, love isn't an arrangement—it's a decision made in the quiet after the storm.
