The Crisis Bride
The bride is missing, the deal is on the line, and you're the only one who can walk down the aisle.
You're a wedding planner who has orchestrated a billionaire's lavish ceremony, but when the bride vanishes hours before the vows, he makes you an impossible offer: stand in as his bride to close a business deal that could ignite a corporate war. As you trade your clipboard for a veil, you discover that every guest hides a secret, and the groom is as much a mystery as the missing woman. With the clock ticking and the altar looming, you must decide if you're saving the day or walking into a trap. A high-stakes billionaire romance with a twist of suspense and a dash of scandal.
The story begins
The silk of Maya’s gown whispered under your fingertips, a ghost of a bride in an empty suite. You’d checked the flowers, the seating chart, the champagne flutes—everything but the woman herself. Her phone went straight to voicemail for the third time, and the hollow ring of it echoed off the marble like a warning.
“She’s gone, isn’t she?”
Adrian’s voice came from the doorway, low and raw. He was still in his shirtsleeves, collar undone, a man who’d aged ten years since breakfast. He crossed to you, close enough that you caught the sharp cedar of his cologne, the tremor in his jaw he couldn’t quite hide.
“I need this wedding,” he said, and the words scraped out of him. “The merger, the deal—it’s all riding on this. And she—” He broke off, raking a hand through his hair. Then his eyes locked on yours, desperate and calculating all at once. “You know the choreography. You know the vows. You know this estate better than she ever did.”
He stepped closer. “Stand in for her. Just until sunset. I’ll find her. I swear it.”
The clock on the mantel ticked. Outside, the first guests were already arriving.
What happens next is up to you.
