BLURB

When Georgia’s engagement to the unfaithful heir, Jaime Dashton, shatters in a public scandal, she expects to walk away. Instead, she finds herself drawn into the orbit of the one man Jaime fears most: his uncle, Nikolaj.

​Nikolaj is the family’s "Alpha"—cold, calculating, and strictly off-limits. But as corporate secrets and family obsessions collide, the professional lines blur into a dangerous attraction.

​Trapped between a man who won't let her go and a man who shouldn't want her, Georgia must navigate a labyrinth of jealousy and hidden truths. In the house of Dashton, loyalty is a lie, and the only thing more dangerous than losing is falling for the man who owns the throne.

​I watched Katsha for a long moment. She looked like she was drowning in her own thoughts. Was it guilt? She had looked genuinely shell-shocked when I first caught her in bed with Jaime—nothing like the defiant, sharp-edged Merry. She seemed more reserved, almost peaceful, like someone who avoided conflict at all costs.


​Had he coerced her? Did he use his power to corner her into it? I wanted to believe that, but they seemed so comfortable together. She and Merry used his first name with ease, and Jaime had made it clear whose loyalty he valued more.


​She caught me staring and blinked, breaking the trance. With a small, graceful bow, she stood up and walked away, her fitted white skirt swaying.


​Stop it, I scolded myself. Empathizing with her doesn't change what happened. She was there, she was with him, and she seemed to be enjoying every second of it when it mattered.
