Blood decides your fate. But hers was never meant to exist. In a world where power is everything and love is a weapon, Lani Grey is nothing more than a forgotten name— until the Caldwells drag her into their dangerous game. A lie. An engagement.

But beneath his charm lies a darker side, and Lani knows better than to trust anyone. Then there’s Dean, Mason’s older brother— the cold, calculating heir who makes no room for weakness. His eyes hold a truth that could destroy everything. But Lani isn’t the only one with something to hide. In a world where loyalty is currency and betrayal is inevitable, Lani must choose: play by their rules or make her own fate— and in the process, burn everything down.

"Sorry, Riley. The movie wasn't to my liking. You can throw the tickets away if you're not going to watch it, either!" I rip the tickets in half and leave. Later, I hear that Chester goes mad when he can no longer find his bride.
