Madison's life has always been a far cry from perfect, but she's spent it piecing together broken parts to create something that works in a unique way for her mother and her. So when her mother tragically dies during her wedding, everything she knows crumples down. Luke Santoro, her mother's new billionaire husband, takes her under his wing but a crumb of mysteries leads her to wonder if the flawless exterior he puts up is nothing but a facade, hiding dark secrets that tie him to her mother's death.

Desperate for answers, she turns her faith to the last person she should trust: her stepbrother's sworn enemy, who's just as dangerous and mysterious as her new family, but with answers that could uncover the truth. With his own motives of bringing the Santoros down, they strike up an unlikely alliance. As they unravel a history of bloodshed and terror, the lines between them start to blur and forbidden feelings spark. Together, they must decide how far they're willing to go to uncover the truth, before it consumes them both.All Rights Reserved

That's what makes it even more complicated. As they each dig deeper past the facade the other has created over the years, it becomes dangerous for everyone involved.
