The Heir.
Henry James DuPont III is the kind of man your mother warned you about-and your father probably owes money to. He's a walking tabloid headline with a trust fund that matches his ego and a trail of broken hearts that stretches from Manhattan to Milan. He doesn't do "feelings." He does scotch, silk sheets, and whatever (or whoever) he wants. But when his father's final will strips him of his gold-plated life, he's sent to a coastal purgatory to earn back his name.
The Miracle.
Sam River Corpus wasn't supposed to exist. Born to a father, Pryce, who defied biology to carry him, Sam is an anomaly wrapped in a quiet, androgynous grace. With skin like porcelain and a pair of haunting, genetically-engineered violet eyes, Sam is the "Talk of the Town"-a miracle, a mystery, and a person who has spent a lifetime being stared at.
When Henry crashes into Sam's world, he expects another conquest. He expects a small-town girl or a simple local he can charm and discard. Instead, he finds Sam-a person who sits between worlds, who doesn't care about the DuPont name, and who sees right through Henry's expensive armor.
As the "Gilded Jerk" tries to survive without his millions, he finds himself drawn to the one person he can't categorize. In a world obsessed with labels, what happens when the man who has everything finally meets the person who is everything?
