Bound by Honor *2ND DRAFT* by Raeladybug

Hi guys! 🥰 I'm so thankful for all the sweet comments on my first draft! This is the second draft of my book, and I completely rewrote it ✨ I really hope it's even better than the first and that you enjoy it 💖 If you see anything I could add, fix, or make better, please tell me-I take your feedback to heart 💌 When two powerful families unite in a marriage of convenience, sparks of strategy, tension, and forbidden emotion ignite. Estella Moretti is poised to inherit her father's empire, a woman sharp, ambitious, and fiercely independent. Malakai Moretti, a calculating heir to a world both luxurious and dangerous, enters her life as a husband-but also as a partner in business, power, and influence. Their marriage begins with formality and distance, a delicate dance of boundaries and unspoken curiosity. But as they navigate gala appearances, high-stakes meetings, and the merging of two vast empires, Estella discovers that Malakai's interest is more than strategic. Thoughtful gestures, secret letters, and quiet moments of care begin to unravel her defenses-though she is still learning how to trust, and to feel. With her brother Easton watching closely, protecting and guiding her, Estella must balance her growing reliance on Malakai with the lessons of her past. As the two of them emerge as a power couple, publicly unstoppable and privately close, one question remains: can a marriage built for business survive-and even thrive-when hearts are finally involved? A story of ambition, love, and loyalty, where trust is earned, boundaries are respected, and the strongest alliances are forged not only in power, but in the quietest moments between two people.
