He was sent to arrest her. He stayed to worship her.
Seraphine Vale is the Wicked Duchess. She runs the Midnight Masquerade, a scandalous haven where the elite indulge their darkest desires in anonymity. It’s her empire, her shield, and her revenge on a society that tried to break her. She controls everything—until he walks in.
Julian Hart is the Crown’s fixer. Cold, ruthless, and obsessed with order, he’s been ordered to shut Seraphine down. He expects a frivolous socialite. He finds a brilliant strategist who challenges him at every turn.
He watches her from the shadows. She taunts him in the light. But when a blackmailer threatens to burn Seraphine’s world to the ground, Julian crosses the line from enemy to protector. Trapped together in a storm-swept estate, the hate turns into a blazing, forbidden need. Can he save her without destroying himself?
