She required a savior. But he sought a sinner.
Elena is a ghost in her life. Crushed by her father's gambling debt and her younger sister's ailing heart, she needs the benevolence of the wealthy Vane family in order to live. To the outside observer, she is the lucky best friend of the Vane heiress. But truthfully? She is drowning.
She has one secret escape—and it is her dark, twisted fantasies about Silas Vane.
He is a cold, ruthless billionaire tycoon. He is lethal and her best friend's father.
He is a totally off-limits guy. A guy who sees people only in terms of a price tag.
Elena knows she ought to be invisible to him. But she is nowhere to be seen until the night the electricity fails, and Silas locates her in his library—susceptible, vulnerable, and engaging in a sinful act of self-indulgence, murmuring his name..
He doesn’t fire her instead Silas sees an opportunity. He notices her desperation.
He will eliminate her debts and save her sister's life.
The cost? Her body. Her submission. And her utter silence.
Elena signs the deal with her family's salvation in mind, knowing she is literally selling out her best friend. However, being increasingly entwined with Silas's bed and cold heart, she comes to a reality-check realization—the danger wasn’t in the debt. It's falling in love with a monster who is already committed to be married.
However, secrets within the Vane family will be lethal. And so, when Elena's belly swells with a secret capable of toppling an empire, she discovers that the only thing worse than Silas Vane. is the one person she trusted most.
