He ruined her life… but fate forced her into his bed. Eight years after fleeing Italy to escape the consequences of a fatal mistake, Leonardo Westwood thought his secret was buried, until fate threw the daughter of the man whose life he took into his path… as his wife. Vivienne Amoretti was just trying to survive when he shattered her world. She lost her job, her peace, and faced several humiliations due to Leonardo’s silent power play. She hit rock bottom when she acted on impulse and embarrassed Leonardo in public; the confrontation landed her behind bars. So when he offers her marriage for money, Vivienne is shocked. But being broke, desperate, and cornered, she says… yes. Tangled and trapped in a cold and loveless marriage built on secrets, betrayal, and quiet enemies, Vivienne finds herself caught in a game far deadlier than she imagined. Her charming ex-lover is back and out to destroy her. Her powerful mother-in-law wants her gone from Leonardo’s life. And in the shadows, someone is watching, and waiting to erase her for good. Worse… she is pregnant and unsure who the father is. And as the truth unravels, it becomes clear that the man who once destroyed her might be the only one who can save her, or he might be the final dagger to stab her in her back. Because in this game of secrets and power… Love isn’t the only thing that can destroy you.
