I’m named after a jewel. Sapphire, but I go by Savvy. I’m from a wealthy family, have domineering parents, and I’m still dependent on their money. I went to college but can’t get taken seriously in my chosen field.
Could I be any more of a cliché?
Yes, I can. I just woke up married in Vegas.
But my new husband will get me the freedom I'm looking for. With him by my side, I won’t get married off to some well-bred rich boy of my dad’s choosing. I’ll be free to pursue my passion for environmental protection.
Until my new husband Xander tells me the last name I was too distracted to catch before I signed the papers and said “I do.”
***
My dad’s the owner and CEO of King Oil, not me. I’m the son that makes him wonder what he did wrong, spending my time roaming the world, avoiding Montana so I don’t have to tell my billionaire dad and accomplished brothers why I’m broke and jobless.
My environmentalist wife wants an annulment as soon as she finds out who I am. Until I tell her my reason for getting married. My millions of reasons. That's right, I have a trust fund, but it comes with stipulations.
All Savvy has to do is stay married to me for a year, then she gets half. We can go our separate ways after 365 days.
Except I want more than a year with her. I've been a guy who hasn't committed to anyone or anywhere his entire adult life. Now I have to convince a woman who hates everything my oil family stands for to give me a lifetime.
