Four years ago, a financial scandal destroyed my family. Millions disappeared from Blackwood International, and my father, the company’s former CFO, was blamed for everything. He disappeared before his trial, leaving me with a ruined family name and one question I have never been able to answer, was my father really guilty? I joined Blackwood International under my mother’s maiden name and spent four years quietly searching for the evidence everyone else stopped looking for. I was finally close to finding something when Damian Blackwood, the company’s new billionaire CEO, discovered who I really was. Instead of exposing me, he offered me a position at his side. He says he wants answers, but I know he has his own reasons for keeping me close. Damian watched his father die under the weight of the scandal and has spent four years believing my father’s betrayal helped destroy his family. He has built his life around control, evidence, and never needing anyone enough to be hurt by them again. I have built mine around proving my father innocent, even if it means sacrificing every chance at happiness. Working for Damian means living under the same roof as the man who suspects my family and working beside the man I should never trust. Then an old secret resurfaces, someone inside the company starts targeting us, and a fake engagement forces us to pretend we are closer than we really are. Every argument exposes another wound. Every moment of protection makes it harder to remember that we are supposed to be enemies. The more we investigate, the more dangerous the truth becomes and the more impossible it is to deny that the man I came to destroy may be the only person who truly sees me. Because my father may not have been the criminal everyone believed him to be, and the person who destroyed my family may be much closer to Damian than either of us expected.
