When a high-stakes business arrangement threatens his empire, Ethan makes a bold proposition: a contract marriage with Clara. What begins as a calculated, strategic partnership is meant to secure his personal and professional interests—but it quickly spirals into something far more complex. Navigating public scrutiny, family expectations, and business rivalries, Ethan must confront his own fears of vulnerability and trust. Clara’s resilience, independence, and integrity challenge him in ways he never anticipated, stirring emotions he has long suppressed. As the contract unfolds, Ethan discovers that love can emerge even in the most calculated arrangements, forcing him to balance ambition with desire, control with surrender, and strategy with the heart. “The Sterling Accord” is a tale of power, passion, and the unexpected vulnerability that comes with opening oneself to love.

One of them wants more than anything to get his hands on this legend, before others seize it before him.
