Heartless. That is what people see when they look at Veronica Beckett. A cold, calculating heiress who feels nothing. She has never given them a reason to think otherwise. Only a few know the truth: Veronica carries her late husband’s heart, a constant reminder of the accident that killed him. When her company begins to collapse, she turns to the only solution she believes she can control, a strategic marriage to stabilize her empire before it falls apart.

At the same time, the truth about the accident begins to surface, and the man behind it all has been watching. Now, Veronica must choose: Walk away and carry a guilt that was never hers. Or stay and risk everything for the man who married her to destroy her.

Damien, my eldest brother, the head of our family, pierced me with a look of cold disappointment. Then he turned his back on me. "There's a limit to your selfishness, Lilith. Clara is a fragile human. She has a heart condition! Did you force that filth on her? Were you trying to kill her? I don't want to see this cruel side of you again. Stay in here and think about what you've done." Ethan, the rock star, and Julian, the gothic architect, couldn't even look at me. Their voices were tight with anger and exhaustion. "We put up with your tantrums, but not so you could hurt our family! You've let us down, Lilith. Stay in there and figure out what you did wrong." Then they carefully lifted the "unconscious" Clara and disappeared down the hall. But they didn't know. The observatory was only meant to open at night. But it malfunctioned. When morning came, the dome didn't close. Deadly sunlight streamed straight in. My power evaporated. My screams turned to silence. I burned to ash. Three days later, my brothers returned with a "recovered" Clara. Only then did they remember me. They had no idea the sun had already executed me.
