His Cruel Intentions

She was the Governor's rebellious daughter-until one mistake banished her to a life far from glittering city lights.

-------------------------

Katherine traded designer heels for muddy boots, sent to the quiet, unforgiving countryside of Lafayette County, where rolling fields and farm life replaced the chaos of her old world. There, she met Jason-the rugged, blue-eyed farmhand who saw past her rebellion and into her heart. What began as fiery clashes turned into a secret love under starlit skies, sealed with promises and a ring of wild daisies.

But when she returned to the city, it was as if those long, beautiful summer days with Jason had never happened. A few months later, she broke his heart and never looked back.

Years later, after a financial crisis left her family on the brink of ruin, the man from her past returned-not the boy she once knew, but a powerful, distant stranger with a shocking proposal: he would save her family, but at a price-her hand in marriage.

Will this be the second chance at a love that was cut too short, or a calculated plan to exact revenge on the girl who destroyed his life?
