Liraz Chevalier-the girl who pirouettes like grace itself-moves once more beneath the beaming spotlights. Her steps were heavier, her stance colder, as though carrying not just grief, but the debts of a world she never chose. With a presence both warmer and unfamiliar, Vaughn Yevhen Gaudin Jr., ever-composed and bound to an engagement contract, finds the walls he built beginning to falter. Behind velvet drapes, shadows gather, and a woman watches-one who never truly left the stage.
In a world of curated legacies and fractured truths, some names are masks, some affections are illusions, and some performances... are more real than anyone dares to admit.

A crime boss struggles to carry out a vendetta after he falls for the spirited daughter of his enemy. ***** Twenty-two years after his parents were killed, Federico Di Maggio returns to New York with a simple plan: take down the man who betrayed his family. What he didn't plan on was Elenora Borelli, the enigmatic and fiery daughter of his enemy. Reeling from recent heartbreak, Elenora will stop at nothing to find her happiness. But when she finds herself pressured into an engagement with the dark and mysterious Federico, happiness may be the least of her problems. Hellbent on sabotaging the arrangement, Elenora defies Federico in ways no one else would ever dare. Too bad Federico's never been one to back down from a challenge. Especially one that calls to him in the most feral and passionate of ways. With unforeseen betrayals and new rivals, perhaps the real challenge Federico must face is deciding whether to fight his feelings for Elenora or give into them.

"Sure, anything for my lawyer and I understand why you are mad, I would too after being disrespected in that manner." he answers and I chuckle. "Ooh, now I have an overprotective client, lucky me."
