Story

The story

At fifteen, Scarlett Thorne was saved in the wilderness by three rough men, one of whom, Ryder, bore a striking resemblance to a face from her dreams. She brought them to the Thorne estate as her kept men, indulging them for years. But their arrogance grew, and they secretly pledged themselves to Brittany Miller, the housekeeper's daughter, plotting to seize the Thorne Corporation once her father dies and sell Scarlett off.

When Scarlett discovers their betrayal, she confronts Ryder. The three men shield Brittany, accusing Scarlett of cruelty and reminding her of the life they saved. Yet Scarlett learns they gave The Seraphina, her late mother's final design, to Brittany without permission. Her patience snaps, and she decides to discipline her disloyal pets.

Opening excerpt

When I was fifteen, I got lost exploring the wilderness and almost met a terrible end, only to be saved by three rough-looking men. Their faces, strikingly similar to the one that haunted my dreams – a seven-tenths resemblance to my moonlit memory – captivated me instantly. My father, at my insistence, brought them back to the Thorne estate as my personal kept men.

But over the years, their arrogance grew with my indulgence. They even secretly pledged their lives to Brittany Miller, our housekeeper's daughter, right under my nose.
