To her family, she was selfish. To his, a schemer. To Alexander Hale, she was a wife he never wanted, met only with glacial contempt. They crafted a villain from the only innocent among them, blind to the devastating truth of her sacrifice. Some debts of the heart are paid in secret, and some secrets demand a price no one saw coming.
His path was never meant to be that of a knight in shining armor. Yet, bound by a dying vow and the chains of filial duty, he is forced to don the armor for a woman who shatters every ideal he ever held. She is not the bride of his dreams, but a challenge written in the stars-a living contradiction who ignites a firestorm of resentment and unwelcome desire. Now, on a journey neither asked for, he must confront the most perilous quest of all: a battle between his steadfast pride and the unexpected whispers of his own heart. Can a promise forged in obligation ever transform into a love written in destiny?
