I always knew getting too close to Lucas Devereux was a risk I couldn’t afford—until his family’s secrets ensnared me beyond escape.
For years, I maintained my distance, convinced it was the smart choice. Lucas was the embodiment of temptation: charming, wealthy, and completely off-limits. Our chemistry simmered beneath the surface, but my priorities were clear: a niece to care for, a career to nurture, and no room for dangerous liaisons—especially not with a Devereux, a name shrouded in scandal I wanted no part of.
But then, everything shifted.
A hidden vault. Priceless stolen art. A legacy steeped in secrets. The Devereux name wasn’t just influential—it was perilous. Suddenly, I found myself standing at the juncture of the life I meticulously crafted and the enigmatic man I vowed to resist.
I should walk away to safeguard myself and my niece. Yet Lucas defied every expectation. Beneath his polished charm lay a man willing to risk everything for justice. As the layers peeled away, my resolve to resist him wavered, making it increasingly difficult to remember why I ever tried to fight the pull.
