Chapter Overview

Description

The Temporary Wife follows Luca Windsor—cold, controlled, and heir to a financial empire—and Valentina Diaz, his brilliant, sharp-tongued executive secretary known as “The Ice Queen.” After years of antagonistic partnership, one wedding night mistake shatters their boundaries and exposes a dangerous truth: Luca’s possessiveness isn’t professional, and Valentina’s composure hides deep scars.

When Valentina’s family crisis collides with Luca’s arranged engagement to an oil heiress, Luca proposes a deal that should be purely transactional: a secret, three-year marriage meant to protect their futures. But living together turns their chemistry into something intimate, their rivalry into trust, and their “temporary” arrangement into real love—until grief, insecurity, and family power plays push them to a breaking point.
