Synopsis
I was supposed to marry the perfect man.
Marcus Wren was everything a woman could want—wealthy, powerful, and devoted to building our future together. Then, at our engagement dinner, his estranged younger brother walked through the door.
The man I'd fallen hard for months before.
The man who disappeared without a word.
The man I'd never expected to see again.
Overnight, my carefully planned life shattered.
My fiancé discovered I had a past with his brother, and neither of them knew I was pregnant—or that the baby could belong to either of them.
As the brothers wage a silent war over me, I uncover an even darker truth.
My father's death was no accident.
A forged signature stole a fortune that should have been mine, and every clue leads back to the powerful Wren family.
Now I'm trapped between two dangerous brothers—one willing to possess me at any cost, the other determined to expose the truth he has spent years chasing.
In a family built on lies, betrayal is inevitable, trust is a luxury, and the woman they both underestimated is done playing by their rules.
