“Elenor Moran died loving Giles Barron. For three years, she endured her husband's indifference, his family's humiliation, and the entire Washington elite treating his mistress, Evelin Sargent, like the real Mrs. Barron. Elenor kept begging for a marriage Giles had never wanted-until someone sabotaged her brakes and sent her to a brutal death. Then she opened her eyes in the hospital, alive again, with every memory of her previous life intact. At her first gala after the crash, Giles publicly placed the "Morning Star" diamond necklace-the anniversary gift he had promised Elenor-around Evelin's neck. This time, Elenor did not cry. She handed him divorce papers. Giles laughed, certain she would come crawling back. He threatened her father, targeted her brother, and let his mother pressure her to produce a Barron heir. His sister even gave her a so-called fertility tonic that would permanently destroy her body. They had used every one of those weapons against her before. Now Elenor knew exactly how to destroy them. While Giles searched for the wife he believed he owned, Elenor stepped into Washington's most dangerous political circles. Armed with knowledge of a coming assassination, she approached Senator Kris Langley-her former Georgetown mentor, Giles's powerful political rival, and the one man who had recognized her brilliance long before she became Mrs. Barron. By the time Giles realizes Elenor never wanted his fortune-and that the devoted wife he discarded is the one woman he cannot replace-she is already dismantling the Barron dynasty piece by piece. He wants her back. His family wants her silenced. But it is far too late to stop her revenge.”
