This isn't your typical arranged marriage story. . . Tamryn Brooks wasn't promised to a man, she was promised to a mystery. Born into wealth, Tamryn has never been blinded by privilege. So when her father arranges her marriage to Darren Bolaray, a man whose power reaches farther than most can imagine, she agrees not out of duty but determination. Darren is everything the world whispers about: commanding, untouchable, and impossibly cold. Yet beneath his control lies something fractured, something he refuses to let anyone see. Tamryn vows to uncover the man behind the mask, even if it means stepping into the darkness he hides. But the closer she gets, the more she learns: love in Darren's world is a dangerous illusion. . . and some secrets are meant to stay buried.
