He Was Supposed to Be My Enemy: Then he touched me like a secret and looked at me like a war.
Evan Blackthorne
He Was Supposed to Be My Enemy
My father died because of a prince.
At least, that’s the lie I was raised to believe.
So when I cross the border into Blackthorn Palace, I come armed with grief, suspicion, and a single purpose: destroy Crown Prince Kael Veyr with the truth.
But Blackthorn is a court built on beautiful lies.
The more I dig into the records surrounding my father’s death, the more the story begins to rot in my hands. Orders were forged. Witnesses vanished. Letters were hidden. And the man I came to hate—the cold, ruthless prince at the center of it all—may be the only one willing to stand where the truth burns.
Kael is dangerous. Controlled. Untouchable.
And every time I get closer to exposing him, I find another reason not to look away.
What starts as political warfare turns into something far more dangerous: desire sharpened by betrayal, a conspiracy buried beneath crowns and bloodlines, and a love story neither of us can afford to survive.
Because if the truth comes out, kingdoms will fall.
And if I choose him, I may lose everything my father died for.
He was supposed to be my enemy.
So why is he the only man I trust with the truth?
Perfect for readers who love: enemies to lovers, forbidden romance, royal intrigue, morally gray heroes, deadly secrets, court politics, and dark emotional tension.
