Hopeless and penniless, Vanessa Bane marries billionaire Charles Goodluck, all in a bid to save her dying mother and use his resources to find her missing sister Aria. But the marriage isn’t at all what she expected, and not only that, lines are beginning to blur between what’s real and what is not. Charles married her for her uncanny resemblance to his ex fiancée who disappeared after cheating on him, his sister Carlisle seems to be involved in whatever happened to her missing sister. Puzzled, Vanessa must uncover the truths surrounding what is now her life, before she is swallowed whole by it.

On the night she is forced to marry a man she has never met, Elara Voss wears a bridal mask—not for tradition, but to hide the truth. To save her imprisoned brother, Elara signs a contract to become the wife of Sebastian Blackwood, a reclusive billionaire known for his ruthless business tactics and hatred of betrayal. Their marriage is sealed without love, without vows… and without her face ever being seen. Sebastian agrees to the strange condition for one reason only: the masked bride is the key to uncovering the identity of the woman who once saved his life and vanished without a trace. Living under the same roof, desire grows where distance was meant to exist. But when the mask finally comes off, secrets tied to blood, revenge, and a deadly conspiracy threaten to destroy everything they are building. Because Elara is not just a bride. She is the woman someone wants dead. And Sebastian Blackwood never protects what is not his.
