He came for revenge. He stayed for her.

Negro heiress Leticia knows exactly what her father Solomon Graves expects: marry well, produce an heir, and secure his growing empire. But a loveless marriage to the polished Owen Beaumont feels like a gilded cage, and if escaping means striking a bargain with the devil, so be it.

That devil is Adonis Baldwin. A wealthy, sharp-tongued, fair-haired heartbreaker who turns desire into a game and always wins. Sent to seduce Leticia as part of his father Mark’s revenge against Solomon, Adonis expects an easy victory. Instead, he finds a woman who meets his charm with defiance and awakens something far more dangerous than desire.

Beneath Leticia’s restraint burns a passion that unsettles Adonis, and what begins as calculated seduction soon becomes something neither of them can control.

As secrets unravel and loyalties fracture, Leticia must choose between the life expected of her… and the man who was never meant to claim her heart.
