I came to Seraphine to escape.
A burned-out doctor, done with arrogant men and the kind of power that kills.
Then I met Adrian Valcrosse.
Heir to the island. Arrogant. Infuriating. Too handsome for his own good. The kind of man I swore I’d never want.
We clash in boardrooms. We fight on the docks. He makes me furious enough to shake,
and then he kisses me like he owns the storm.
One night in a sea cave changes everything.
His hands on my skin, his mouth at my throat, his voice wrecked when he begs me to say yes. I should hate him. Instead, I burn for him.
He’s danger in a suit, temptation wrapped in duty. I tell myself I can’t fall,
but every time he touches me, I already am.
