The Woman in My Marriage
590 Views · Ongoing · Tori Anne
He married her for her name. His first love fell for his wife.
Seraphina Ashbourne was born into one of London's most respected old-money families. But when the Ashbourne fortune collapses, all she has left is a powerful name, a talent for painting, and her grandfather's beloved exhibition hall, now days away from auction.
Then billionaire Cillian Laurent offers her a way out.
Three years of marriage.
$300,000 a month.
And the exhibition hall.
No love. No sex. No interference.
Cillian doesn't want Seraphina's heart. He wants the Ashbourne name for his ambitious new project. His heart already belongs to Saskia Moreau, his beautiful blonde childhood friend and one of the world's most sought-after models.
Seraphina expects Saskia to hate her. Instead, Saskia becomes fascinated by her.
She visits Seraphina's studio. Watches her paint. Flirts with her. Finds excuses to be near her.
What begins as harmless attraction soon becomes something neither woman can control. Saskia is falling for her best friend's wife, and she's falling hard.
Seraphina knows she should keep her distance. Saskia is the woman her husband has loved for years, and their marriage has an expiration date. But every stolen glance, every lingering touch, and every moment together makes it harder to remember that their marriage was supposed to be a loveless arrangement.
Cillian thought Saskia love him, he's wrong.
The woman he married for her name may become the one woman his first love can’t live without.
And Seraphina must decide whether saving her family's legacy is worth losing the woman who has become her heart.
