In the gilded age of American industry, one name could silence an entire room: Victor Langford. Steel magnate. Railroad investor. The most powerful man in Briarwood, Pennsylvania. When he proposed a marriage contract to Florence Kingswell — the daughter of a failing merchant drowning in debt — everyone assumed she had no choice but to accept. They were wrong. Florence had spent years keeping her family afloat through careful negotiation and meticulous accounting. She understood contracts better than most lawyers. And when she walked into Langford's office, she didn't come to beg. She came to negotiate. What neither of them expected was that a transaction built on necessity would become something far more dangerous: a partnership built on respect, truth, and the realization that the most valuable things can't be written into any legal document.
