He wanted revenge. She wanted freedom. Neither prepared for the ruin of touching each other.
Rosette Croft was supposed to be the pawn a cold, beautiful weapon meant to strip Richard’s empire bare. But Richard doesn't play defense. He takes what’s his, pins it against the nearest wall, and claims every inch until there’s nothing left to hide. Bound together by forged deeds, blood-stained family secrets, and a brutal bid for control, their alliance devolves into something far more dangerous: a feverish, intoxicating addiction.
In a high-stakes war where empires fall in minutes, the line between hatred and dark submission vanishes. They didn't just take the board they completely consumed each other.
