Blurb
Rejected, degraded, and told she was only good enough to be a breeder, Sable refused to bow. When her arrogant ex-fiancé, Rhett, demands her submission, she makes a dangerous gamble instead: a fake marriage contract with Alpha Kael. Kael is ruthless, older, and desperately needs a bride to secure his throne from his four cunning stepbrothers.
What begins as a cold, calculated arrangement quickly combusts into scorching, undeniable chemistry. As the lines between real and fake blur, Kael’s icy walls melt, and an obsessive Rhett suddenly realizes he made the biggest mistake of his life. But happiness is a deadly illusion. Framed for the former Alpha's murder by Kael's jealous brothers and a bitter rival named Zaya, Sable is utterly betrayed. Kael believes the conspiracy and banishes her, just as she realizes she is carrying his child.
Heartbroken, Sable is rescued by rogues, only for tragedy to strike again when her newborn son is kidnapped during a brutal raid. In a twist of fate, it is Rhett who finds the abandoned baby, raising the boy as his own without knowing he belongs to Kael.
Years later, Sable returns. No longer a broken outcast, she is a wealthy, untouchable elite doctor with one goal: revenge. Now, two powerful, desperate men are on their knees begging for a second chance. Caught in a treacherous web of lies, shifting loyalties, and intoxicating desire, Sable faces an impossible dilemma.
Will she choose the ex who humiliated her but fiercely protected her missing child, or the ruthless father of her baby who shattered her heart but still set her soul on fire? And what happens when Kael's four stepbrothers decide they don't just want the throne anymore... they want her?
