Hardman

He lost everything. Now he's ready to take the world-starting with her.

Bruce is a war-hardened, emotionally shut-off former Texas governor with only one thing on his mind: becoming the next President of the United States. Cold, calculating, and merciless when it comes to justice, he's known for eliminating crime and building a political empire fueled by pain and vengeance.

But there's one thing standing between him and the White House: his image.

To win America's heart, he needs to soften his edges. Be more... lovable.
The solution? A strategic, emotionless marriage of convenience to paint him as a family man.

Sophia never imagined her life would come to this. Once a rising star with the Bolshoi Ballet, she gave up everything to care for her ailing mother and save the family restaurant in Queens. Now drowning in debt, broken dreams, and exhaustion, she needs a miracle.

What she gets is a cold-eyed, 6'4" political giant with a brutal past and an even more brutal offer:
Marry him. Play the perfect First Lady. In exchange, her problems disappear.

No strings. No love. Just politics.
But nothing about Bruce is easy to endure-or resist.

And the more Sophia steps into the spotlight by his side, the more the lines blur between duty and desire, pretense and passion.

She was supposed to fix his image.
He might just ruin her heart.
