Will Mavric top someone when he's the one who's falling? In a play where one had to win, both of them fell...hard.

The Azcon-Zobel family has long been one of the most influential families in Villa Terrazas. Unlike other powerful clans, however, they have kept their influence hidden from the public eye for generations, believing that secrecy is the only way to protect their family and preserve the traditions they have upheld for decades. Born into that legacy, Embry Zobel has never known a life outside its rigid expectations. Raised to obey without question, she accepts that her future has already been decided-including the man she is destined to marry. To her, love has always been a privilege reserved for other people, never for someone bound by the weight of a family name. Everything begins to change when she steps beyond the walls that have sheltered her all her life. She finds herself drawn to a boy with a different surname. Caught between the traditions and the emotions she can no longer ignore, Embry must decide whether some legacies are worth protecting-or whether some rules are meant to be broken.
