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.

It had been an eternity since I'd felt a laugh bubble up from somewhere real. Laughing with Natalia was different—it felt like stepping into a different timeline, a temporary escape from my current reality. But the second we hung up, the shadows always rushed back in.


​Laughing at Nikolaj, however, was the first time light had actually broken through the gloom of my daily life.


​It felt incredible to just crack up, but the realization hit me with a wave of guilt. The timing and the person were all wrong. Why was my ex-fiancé's uncle the one making me feel this way?


​"Alright, you've had your fun. I'm glad you got all that frustration out, but I think we should head down now," Nikolaj said, gesturing toward the stairs. I glanced over the edge and felt a sudden chill. We were incredibly high up.
