❦THE FIRST NIGHT~the spark❦
Some secrets are buried to protect the dead...
Others are buried to protect the living.
Zara Vance has built an empire by uncovering the secrets of the powerful. At twenty-six, she is a billionaire, the CEO of Vance Intelligence Solutions, and one of Europe's most feared investigators. She can expose a connection between her father's past and a family she was never meant to know.
Then she meets Damian Moretti.
Cold, powerful, and impossible to read, Damian has spent years searching for answers about his brother Marco's death. He believes Jonathan Vance was connected to it, and now Jonathan's daughter has unknowingly stepped directly into the mystery he has spent years trying to solve.
Zara believes Damian knows more than he admits.
Damian believes Zara is hiding more than she realises.
They should be enemies.
They should never trust each other.
But when an assassination attempt at the Royal Meridian Gala leaves Damian wounded and a powerful businessman dead, their lives become dangerously intertwined.
Zara has one secret of her own - she recorded the man's final confession.
A confession that connects Jonathan Vance to Marco Moretti.
A confession that could change everything.
Because Zara thought she was searching for the person who killed her father.
She never expected to discover the truth about the man he really was.
Now Zara and Damian must uncover a secret buried between two families, while someone is willing to kill to keep it hidden.
And somewhere between suspicion, betrayal, danger, and revenge...
The enemies begin to fall in love.
For Zara, Damian is the raven - a shadow leading her toward the darkness.
For Damian, Zara is the rose - beautiful, dangerous, and covered in thorns.
The rose remembers the wound.
The raven remembers the dead.
And somewhere between them lies the truth.
