He thought she was hopelessly in love with him—turns out, she was in love with his bank account. “Why are you here again? Didn’t I tell you to stop following me?” Sawyer Stark is convinced Ellie Madden is hopelessly in love with him. For three years, she’s been his girlfriend, bound by a convenient deal to maintain appearances until his childhood love, Olivia, returns. But Ellie didn’t get the memo. Every time he turns around, there she is, looking at him like he’s her world. “Here’s ten thousand dollars. Is that enough to make you disappear?” he scoffs, offering cash as if it’s a solution. What he doesn’t realize is that Ellie isn’t there for love—she’s there for his wallet. A fire stole her identity and left her drowning in debt, and Sawyer’s money is her lifeline. When Olivia finally returns, Ellie doesn’t wait to be thrown out—she vanishes on her own, leaving Sawyer stunned. Suddenly, it’s not Olivia he wants—it’s the ‘gold digger’ who’s caught another man’s attention. Seeing Ellie with someone else ignites something Sawyer never expected. Now he’s not just jealous; he’s furious. For the first time, he’s not sure what hurts more—losing Ellie or realizing she might not have cared about him at all.
