Bound by Oath, Desire, and Love

A dark, seductive why-choose romance about trauma, loyalty, and the dangerous kind of love that saves and destroys.

Anastasia didn't really choose the world that claimed her. At thirty-five, she is a single mother who no longer believes in love-only in endurance. When her daughter is accepted into an elite private school secretly controlled by a powerful Brotherhood, Anastasia begins working there, unknowingly stepping into a world ruled by loyalty, secrets, and power.

Hayden Blackwood is an heir to that world. Cold, rebellious, powerful, and bound by obligation, he chooses Anastasia as his wife after a single encounter. She accepts for her daughter's future, unaware of the cost of becoming part of the Brotherhood's designs.

But in this world, there is also Alexander-Hayden's best friend and his opposite in every way. He appears forbidden-but is he truly? As she grows closer to him than to her own husband, the rules she has lived by all her life begin to fracture.

Caught between two men bound by the same oath, Anastasia is pulled into a life of desire, violence, and impossible choices. And as the Brotherhood tightens its grip, she learns that darkness is not something to fear.

It is something to claim.
