Rayanne Felicia Roncesvalles has spent her entire life getting everything she wants. As the sole heiress of the Roncesvalles Empire, she was born into power, privilege, and success. Losing has never been an option-and neither has being told no. Until Hessandro Vandross dela Merced. He is the one man she can't have. Engaged to another woman and completely out of reach, Hessandro remains the only thing Raia has ever truly wanted but could never claim as her own. Then everything changes. When the dela Merced empire begins to crumble, Raia offers a deal that could save them all-a marriage in exchange for her name, her status, and her wealth. What should have been her greatest victory soon turns into her deepest heartbreak. Bound to a man who married her out of obligation, Raia is forced to face a painful truth: money can buy power, influence, and almost anything in the world-but it can never make someone love you. How long can she keep fighting for a man whose heart has always belonged elsewhere? And when love becomes a battle she can't win, will she finally learn to let go-or lose herself trying to hold on?
