He wanted revenge but found her instead. Revenge is finally within reach when the man I ache to ruin offers his daughter for marriage. A woman who stands for everything I despise but, in a strange twist of fate, turns out to be nothing like the ugly rumors surrounding her. Her warm smile and kind heart chip at the walls I so dutifully erected around my heart. And as they crumble to the ground piece by miserable piece, secrets from our pasts emerge and threaten to destroy us. The right thing would be to walk away, to let go of my need for revenge. But I can't. I won't. Even if it means destroying her-destroying us-in the end. Contains mature themes.
