I fought against him at every turn…Killian Scarano, the most infuriating, sexiest, adonis of a man I've ever met. But as my family begins to crumble around me after my father's lies and bad deals call his leadership into question I realize it's Killian's domineering and controlling ways that's kept me safe. Protecting me the way I would expect my future husband too, and peeling me open to reveal parts of myself I didn't even know were there. But keeping my father's secrets for the good of the family and the alliance we so desperately need weighs heavily on me as I no longer view Killian as my enemy. I need him now more than ever and I'm concerned that if he finds out I've been lying we won't survive. It's time to choose where my loyalty truly lies and soon, before it's too late.
