Between The Lines: An Enemies to Lovers, Forced Proximity Romance; The Redliner Series - Book One by Natalie Halloran

Between The Lines is an enemies-to-lovers, forced-proximity romance. When Lucy Martin discovers her arranged marriage will strip her of her freedom and turn her into little more than a piece of Bruno's property, she makes a desperate choice. Minutes before she’s meant to walk down the aisle, she vanishes—leaving her family, her past, and her name behind.
