"Now that I know how you really feel...things are about to get a lot harder for you..." As he began to unbuckle his belt, my breath hitched and I stumbled back onto the floor, crawling away. Eloise Lettner lived most of her life as an ordinary girl with busy parents that loved her and an annoying little brother to argue with. And, high school was hitting its peak for her, with a posse of popular friends and her crush finally starting to become interested in her. Life was great and uneventful...just the way she liked it... But, of course, life never likes to please anyone... And, one person leads to the destruction of that perfect little life she's built.

As she finds her world crumbling to pieces, she also finds the hope and strength to survive in this new reality. But, why her? What made her so special that it would set the eyes of the biggest mafia groups in the world on her? Maybe there's more to Eloise's life than even she knows...

As Sutherland's new king, Emory Davercher faces countless challenges, but nothing as excruciating and frustrating as his mysterious, eccentric betrothed. *** When King Emory of Sutherland receives news that his betrothed is on her way to Sutherland, he sends her away before even laying eyes on the woman he has no intention of marrying. Months later, after a narrow escape from an assassination, he flees to his childhood home where he discovers a massive problem. Due to an unfortunate mishap, his betrothed has not left Sutherland. She's been in his secret estate all along. Grand Princess Florence Paulet of Gavaria and her cousin, Lucy, thinks her arrival in Sutherland will be easy. She doesn't expect that her betrothed, King Emory of Sutherland, will send her straight to an empty estate on an island where they fend for themselves for months. And when he finally shows up, he has the audacity to fool her by introducing himself as someone else. After having killed dozens of chickens with her bare hands to stay alive, and with lying as her ultimate weapon for survival since she left Gavaria, what else can an annoyed, blithe, and audacious Florence do? Of course, she has to return the favor and make him twice the fool. He thinks he's fooling her, and she finds fun knowing it's the other way around. As the harsh winter traps them in the estate, lies, little accidents, and undeniable attraction draw them together stronger than the snowstorm. But not as much as Florence's true reasons for leaving Gavaria, which are also making their way to Sutherland.
