In a world flipped on its head, Jorlan Reynard is a man who refuses to be bought—until he meets the Marquelle Green Tamryn, a powerful aristocrat willing to marry him on his own terms. Their passionate union promises security and desire in equal measure, but enemies lurk in the shadows, threatening everything they've built together. As the Marquelle fights to protect their union against political forces closing in, Jorlan reveals himself to be far more than just a beautiful face—he's an unexpected powerhouse whose extraordinary abilities will shake their world to its foundations. A richly sensual tale of power, passion, and discovering that true strength sometimes wears the most surprising face.
