Pearl Storm was once the beloved, innocent child of the powerful Storm family, yet as she grew, her light was overshadowed by dark betrayals and endless favoritism. Her sister, Anna Mai, could do no wrong in the eyes of their parents, leaving Pearl cast aside, deemed the "rejected stone" of the Storm lineage. But things took a darker turn when Alexander Powers, Pearl's ex-husband, chose Anna Mai over her, shattering what was left of Pearl's trust and faith in family.
In a world where love and loyalty are twisted into weapons, Pearl discovers that the only person she can truly rely on is herself... and her one true ally, her younger brother Jessie. Together, they will confront the demons of their past, Pearl will harness her hidden talents, reclaim her power, and rise to be the force no one expected.
In a tale of love triangles, family loyalties, and unforgivable betrayal, Pearl embarks on a relentless journey toward self-love and unyielding strength. She will reclaim what was taken, and she will make those who forsook her-her own family-know the unbreakable force of a woman reborn.

He'd never met someone with such a bubbly personality. Not to mention the wildness and odd phrases she'd say every five minutes. He hates it. He hates how he can't stay away from it. He hates what she does to him; it's not like him to chase after some girl. She gets under his skin like no other.
She'd never met someone with such a bad attitude. He's ill-mannered and menacing. The glare never seems to leave his face. Considering it all, she can't help but feel the attraction toward him. Dangerous attraction toward a seemingly dangerous man. Maybe it's the tattoos on his arm that gets her attention. Or maybe it's because she can tell there's hope for good under his rough exterior. And she's about to find that, whether he likes it or not.
It's no secret that the two of them are complete and total opposites.

"You like being called Sugar, don't you?" I tease, placing my toothbrush back after finishing.
He does the same and gives me a side-eyed scowl.
He grips my chin harshly and kisses me. My body temperature raises a good ten degrees and my right leg goes all wiggly. He pulls away.
"You like it when I kiss you, don't you?" He teases the same way I did to him and I'm left blubbering.
"I think both of our questions are rhetorical," I lower my voice up at him. His lip curls up into a smirk.
