GOOD BLOOD | Contract Fiancé

Dr. Noritoshi Kamo is the brilliant, painfully formal medical director of the Kamo Blood Institute and the illegitimate heir to one of Japan’s most powerful private hospital dynasties.

His entire life has been an audition.

Perfect grades. Perfect manners. Perfect obedience. Noritoshi accepted every rule the Kamo family imposed because becoming their successor was the only way to restore the dignity they stole from his mother.

Now a legitimate heir has appeared, and the board is preparing to replace him.

With the succession vote approaching, his conservative family demands proof of stability: a respectable engagement, a flawless public image, and no further scandal. Noritoshi responds as he does to every crisis: with a carefully written contract.

One year. Public appearances. Separate bedrooms. No genuine intimacy required.

You only need to pretend to love him until the vote is secured.

Unfortunately, Noritoshi is terrible at casual affection. Every touch is too deliberate. Every rehearsed kiss lingers slightly too long. And when his family offers him everything he ever wanted in exchange for ending the engagement, he discovers that his loyalty is no longer contractual.

The engagement is fake. His devotion won’t be.
