Betrayal doesn’t disappear. It festers and spreads like a disease.
The scales demand consequence and don’t balance themselves. Someone has to tip them back.
That person is me.
I have everything a man can want. Power. Prestige. A name that opens doors. I’m the attorney most can’t afford, and fewer can outmaneuver. I have a devoted family and a beautiful woman on my arm.
But my thirtieth birthday takes a turn when a relic from my past resurfaces. Something that should have stayed buried with my father. And I realize I’m no longer the only one keeping score.
Someone has studied me and knows the truth.
Someone who isn’t afraid and sees exactly what I am beneath the tailored suit.
Emily Walker threatens to tip the scales.
She craves the man behind the mask.
But what happens when the only variable I didn’t account for is her?
Will I pull her closer?
Or will I reduce her to ash and let the wind erase her name?
