HIDDEN HEIR

He was raised to be a ghost. She was hired to catalog his family's secrets. Neither of them saw the wedding coming.

Briar Winslow doesn't ask questions about her clients. She catalogs the art, collects the check, and walks away - until the gallery she's been hired to appraise turns out to belong to a man the world was told didn't exist.

Zakhar Kazarin vanished at seven years old, the night his father was murdered by the enemy his family has been at war with for twenty years. Now he's back - hunted, untested, and one council vote away from losing a throne he never wanted and can't walk away from.

He needs a wife the council can't dismiss as weak.

She needs a paycheck her mother's medical bills can't wait for.

It should have been simple.

Then a stranger's bullet finds her name before it ever finds her face - and Zakhar doesn't offer her a way out. He offers her a ring.

She says yes. Not for the money. For him.

What follows is a wedding in a beige courthouse room, a mole inside his own household, a staged rift that turns humiliatingly real, a kidnapping that costs him blood, and a council chamber where the only law that still matters is the one written in it.

He was trained never to want anything he couldn't afford to lose.

She was never afraid of him - not once, not even at the beginning.

Together, they're about to become the one thing his father's killers never accounted for.

Unbreakable.
