What would it take for you to break out of character? Or better yet...how much?

Shaina Richardson was raised to find the positive in every situation. It was a mentality that sustained her through trying times and despite teetering on the brink of breaking, her ability to discover the silver lining kept her smile intact.

However, when her mother falls victim to a life-threatening illness, Shaina struggles under the weight of financial obligations and finds herself ready to cave to her reality. Just before everything collapses around her, she is presented with an opportunity that will save her mother and change their lives for the better. Only one thing stands in her way-her moral code.

As her mother's health gradually declines, will Shaina hold true to her values regardless of who gets hurt? Or will she sell her soul to save the one person who remains in her corner?

The Contract is a tantalizing tale of love, lust, and loyalty.","format",{"_19":108,"_85":109,"_110":111,"_112":46},"publisher","Mynd Matters Publishing","page_count",345,"duration","published_date","pub_date","August 30","isbn","asin","B0BX47CRW3","hex_code","#280828","language","English","purchase_links",[],"playlist_links",[],"cover","https://cdn.blackauthored.com/books/6036i/eedd6fa8-f43a-414c-b25f-d86b8ee6a43a/1788466165.jpg","thumb","https://img.blackauthored.com/?preset=poster_thumb&image=https%3A%2F%2Fcdn.blackauthored.com%2Fbooks%2F6036i%2Feedd6fa8-f43a-414c-b25f-d86b8ee6a43a%2F1788466165.jpg","rating_distribution",{"_101":102,"_103":104},"tags",[83,84],{"_19":95,"_85":96,"_87":97,"_52":-5,"_50":98,"_90":99,"_92":100,"_93":46,"_94":48},{"_19":24,"_85":86,"_87":88,"_52":-5,"_50":89,"_90":91,"_92":46,"_93":46,"_94":48},"name","Romance","category","genre","romance","url","/genres/romance","selectable","sensitive","position",42,"Slow Burn","trope","slow-burn","/tropes/slow-burn",true,"ratings",{},"recommend",{"_105":24,"_106":48,"_107":48},"yes","no","maybe",3,"Kindle","type","digital","audio",{"_19":114,"_85":115,"_50":116,"_117":118,"_119":120,"_121":122,"_123":124,"_125":100},"ecd96cce-4242-4d89-9746-6dac3e467168","Tanon","938-tanon","biography","

Growing up, Tanon loved to write. She spent a lot of time creating stories that she wouldn’t let anyone read and worked hard to perfect them. As she got older, many of her English teachers would express their delight in her short story assignments, which gave her the boost that she needed to continue her secret passion.

\n
\n

After graduating college, Tanon’s best friend convinced her to join Wattpad (a free reading app for readers and authors) where she anonymously published books for almost five years. She became a known author on the app, but still felt like something was missing.

\n
\n

After praying on it, Tanon decided to take a big leap and officially published her debut novel to be released into the world. Thanks to the small independent publishing team at Mynd Matters, her big dreams were flawlessly executed, which only pushed her to continue writing and post more of her work for readers to enjoy.
