He tried to break me. He doesnât know you canât break whatâs already shattered. I was nothing more than a pawn in my fatherâs twisted gamesâuntil Lachlan O'Donnell claimed me as his wife. He gave me one night of passion before stripping me of my dignity, my pride, and my self-respect. But he wasnât the only one who wanted vengeance, and when he carelessly gave me the opportunity, I took everything I wantedâincluding my powerâand used his own weapon against him. And then I went after everyone else who dared hurt an innocent person. Lachlan says he regrets what he did to me. He vows to make things rightâno matter what it takes. I donât trust him, and I canât ever let myself forgive himâespecially not when I still crave his touch. When Iâm offered a chance to join forces with him and execute the man who killed his brother, I reluctantly agree. Too many lives are at stake, and I canât afford to let my feelings get in the way of taking down a monster. Lachlan has other plans. With every kiss, every loving word, and every sweet promise I canât help but believe, I fall deeper under his spell, despite the danger to my heart. Can I forgive the man who tried to break me?
