Wrong Bid

She practiced raising her paddle for the safe choice. Then the wrong billionaire walked onto the stage.

For two weeks, Hannah rehearses to bid on a kind, sensible professor. Her gala program has a careful pencil star beside his name. Her borrowed dress almost fits.

Then the program changes, her paddle goes up on instinct, and she becomes the only person in four hundred willing to bid on Patrick Chandler, the tabloid playboy nobody else will touch.

She cannot take it back without humiliating the charity that funds her library's literacy program. He cannot waste the getaway, or the chance to prove he has reformed. Patrick needs a sympathetic angle, a real person the cameras can love. Hannah would rather vanish than become one.

But a quiet woman who reads everyone is impossible to perform for. She sees the gap between his smile and his eyes on the first night, and the more she refuses to be charmed, managed, or photographed, the harder the practiced billionaire falls for the one person who can see through him. Four days alone, and the closeness they perform turns into real heat, the kind neither can fake once the lights go off.

If she is just his redemption story, how does she trust what her own eyes are telling her?

Wrong Bid is a steamy, standalone billionaire romance with a guaranteed happily ever after.
