Terms of Attraction: (A Scandal, a Contract... And Inconvenient Chemistry)

A scandal. A contract. A chemistry neither of them can spin.When investigative blogger Cassidy Hale calls out reclusive billionaire Nikos Karras live on air, she expects heat. She doesn't expect collateral damage: her family's farm losing its buyer overnight. Nikos needs an image course-correction to save a make-or-break robotics deal. Cass needs a lifeline before harvest rots in the field.
Their solution is outrageous and airtight: a temporary dating agreement with rules, clauses, and a timer. No ambushes. No family exposure. Joint statements within ninety minutes if a leak hits. Smile for the cameras, keep their hearts out of it.
Then come the sparks they didn't plan for-range-day banter, rope-belay trust, a library "crying room" that stops them both in their tracks. A residency clause shoves them under one roof. Anonymous smears and a deepfake try to burn it all down. Instead of breaking, Cass and Nikos build a new playbook-one that treats truth like governance, not gossip.
As the board vote looms and the farm teeters, they'll have to decide if the contract is scaffolding...or a shield they're hiding behind. Because the paper can sunset at midnight. The feelings won't.
TERMS OF ATTRACTION is a smart, sexy, consent-forward billionaire romance about two people who fix the mess they made-and find the kind of love you can practice, not perform.
