Kingsley Rollins doesn’t believe in second chances. Not in love. Not in forgiveness. Not after the woman he would’ve died for left him with a coffin instead of a future. Now the ruthless owner of Blackcrest Groups lives by one rule— never let anyone close enough to matter. Until Annabel walks into his home. She was hired to take care of his children. She was not supposed to get under his skin. And she was never supposed to make him feel again. But the more she uncovers about the man behind the cold eyes, the more she realizes something isn’t right about the tragedy that broke him. Neither of them planned on falling. But when the woman buried years ago walks back into Kingsley’s life very much alive and returns with secrets that could destroy them all, Annabel is forced to confront a darker truth— Her father’s death was never an accident. Annabel realizes she’s been living inside a lie. And the man she’s falling for may be standing at the center of it all. In a world built on secrets, love isn’t salvation. It’s a risk.
