In the quiet village of Greystone Hollow, forest ranger Edward Carter has always protected the woods he loves.

Secrets, deception, and the forest itself blur the line between justice and revenge. Will the truth ever be uncovered, or will the shadows of the forest consume everything?

Prince Adrian of Solmere was supposed to marry a princess and save his dying kingdom. Instead, his father throws him into a treaty marriage with Prince Lucien of Valtoria, the son of their greatest enemy, without warning or mercy. The engagement announcement becomes a public disaster when Adrian faints at the altar during the binding ceremony, broadcast across both kingdoms. The headlines are brutal: "The Weak Prince Who Cannot Even Stand For His Kingdom." Humiliated and trapped, Adrian expects his new husband to be another weapon pointed at his throat. What he gets is Lucien, sharp-tongued and beautiful, who kneels beside him after the ceremony and whispers, "Get up. They are watching us fail." Lucien is everything Adrian was taught to hate. Confident where Adrian doubts. Ruthless where Adrian hesitates. Desired where Adrian is dismissed. But behind closed doors, Lucien is also trapped, forced into this marriage by a father who sees him as a pawn, not a son. As they navigate royal dinners that feel like battlefields and treaty negotiations that could explode into war, something unexpected grows between them. Partnership. Understanding. Want. Then the assassination attempts begin. Someone wants this marriage to fail and both kingdoms to burn. The evidence points to betrayal from within their own courts. Adrian must choose: stay the weak prince everyone expects him to be, or become the leader his kingdom needs. And Lucien must decide if protecting Adrian means destroying the only chance at peace their world has ever known. Two princes. One marriage. A thousand ways it could all fall apart.

When Adanna Cole said yes to Darian Holt, she thought she was marrying a dream....not a lie. He was everything she wanted.... protective, charming, and dangerous in all the right ways. But the night before their wedding, she uncovers something she was never meant to see, a coded file linking Darian to the same criminal network that killed her father ten years ago.

She can’t know who I am yet.” And just like that, the man she loves becomes the man she fears. Before dawn, everything burns... the wedding, the truth, and the fragile trust that once held them together. But Adanna doesn’t run far. She needs to know why. Because maybe Darian isn’t the villain after all… Or maybe he’s the only one smart enough to make her fall in love with her own enemy....
