For three years, billionaire Adrian Blackthorne has hidden himself behind the gates of Ravenhurst Sanctuary, refusing to see the world—or anyone in it. When socialite Scarlett Sinclair arrives with one mission—to bring him back—she expects rejection. Instead, she gets a challenge. "Give me one reason not to throw you out." What begins as a battle of wills quickly turns into something far more dangerous. Because behind Adrian's cold exterior lies a man haunted by secrets, and behind the walls of Ravenhurst lies a truth no one was meant to uncover. The longer Scarlett stays, the harder it becomes to leave. And the more she falls for the billionaire recluse, the closer she gets to a secret that could destroy them both.
