He faked their divorce to save her life. Now the woman he can't touch is the only one he wants.

Sophia Hawthorne spent five years loving a man who never loved her back. Five years being the perfect wife — until her husband asked for an open marriage. The very next day, he brought home a pregnant woman. Humiliated and betrayed, Sophia decides to make him regret everything. And revenge leads her straight into the arms of the one man she should never want. Jaxx Moretti. Her husband's younger brother. The family's black sheep. Her greatest temptation. The man with a wicked smile, filthy promises, and a dangerous habit of looking at her like she's already his. Getting involved with him was supposed to be simple. A reckless mistake, a way to make her husband jealous. But Sophia quickly learns that Jaxx was never interested in being her revenge. He wants to consume her. Every line she swore she'd never cross disappears the moment he's near. And the more she tries to convince herself she's in control, the more she realizes she's been losing this game from the very beginning. Because Jaxx doesn't want a few hidden nights. He doesn't want half of her. He wants everything. And once Sophia lets the wrong brother into her bed, her marriage, her body, and her heart, walking away is no longer an option. Now she's trapped between the husband who never wanted her and the brother who refuses to let her go. What began as revenge is turning into obsession. And Sophia is about to discover that some mistakes don't ruin your life. They ruin you.

Aurelia Castleworth has spent years perfecting the art of scandal. But one viral moment too many, and her father finally decides enough is enough. He’s sending her away to the countryside to live with an aunt she’s never met—and assigning her a bodyguard she never wanted. Arthur Thorne. The same boy who once grew her a white rose, made her believe in forever… then vanished without a word. Six years later, he’s back—taller, colder, and under strict orders to keep her alive. He’s not to win her heart or to explain why he left. Just to protect her. But the danger following them is real. And the longer they’re forced together, the harder it becomes to pretend the past is buried. He broke her once—taking her heart with him. Now he’s the only one standing between her and everything that wants her gone. Loyalty is duty.
Desire is his weakness. And love is something neither of them bargained for.
