Nicholas De Vil was the man I loved in secret for years, the unattainable heir to a dynasty cloaked in power and privilege. But when duty called, he chose my sister, leaving me to the well-worn role of second best once again. Now, with her gone, I’m the substitute bride in an arranged marriage he never wanted.
At first, Nicholas is consumed by a relentless quest to uncover the truth behind my sister’s murder. But as we’re forced to share a life—and a home—I begin to see glimpses of the man I once longed for.
What if I can make him love me? For once, what if I can come first?
As we’re beginning to bridge the gap between us, a devastating revelation threatens to shatter our fragile bond, forcing us to confront the lies, betrayals, and secrets tying us to the past.
Can I finally win his heart and leave the position of “runner-up” behind, or will unearthing the truth cost me everything I’ve ever wanted?
