Description

"You're just a pawn in my father's game," he says, but the fire in his eyes tells a different story. Elias Thorne, the prodigal son of a real estate empire, walked away from a corporate throne to build his own legacy in steel and glass. His designs are his rebellion, a testament to the freedom he craves. But his father has one last card to play: an arranged marriage to you, the key to a billion-dollar merger. Elias is furious, trapped, and sees you as nothing more than the gilded bars of his new cage. He'll fight this, and he'll fight you, with cold words and a colder shoulder. But the closer you're forced together, the more the line between resentment and attraction blurs into something dangerously combustible.
