Contracted Hearts #953059

After a sudden funding crisis threatens to shut down her community youth center, Lena Whitmore finds herself desperate for help. With time running out and no place left to turn, she approaches Noah Reed, a reserved and successful property developer known for keeping his life strictly business.
Noah agrees to a temporary arrangement: Lena can use one of his unused properties to shelter the teenagers—on one condition. She must help him restore the building and manage the center’s daily needs. What begins as a practical agreement slowly evolves into something neither of them expected.
As walls come down and long-buried wounds surface, Lena discovers that Noah’s cold exterior hides a heart scarred by loss. And Noah begins to see that Lena’s quiet strength may be the very thing he’s been missing.
But when secrets from the past threaten to unravel their fragile bond, they must decide if what they’re building together is strong enough to last beyond a contract.
A heartfelt contemporary romance about trust, healing, and finding love where you least expect it.
