The Heir Who Knew

“Serena Vale was sent to destroy the De Luca empire from the inside. She arrives in Vespera as a polished corporate consultant, her mission simple: get close to the Golden Heir, find the Black Ledger, and bring down a dynasty built on blood and secrets. Adrian De Luca has been waiting for her. He knew her name, her agency, and her orders before she ever walked into his world. Instead of exposing her, he lets her in, because her investigation may lead him to the people who truly control his family. But he never planned on wanting her. As danger closes in from rival families, corrupt officials, and a betrayal buried years deep, the lines between deception and desire begin to blur. Serena is chasing the truth about her father's death. Adrian is running from becoming his father. And when the lie finally breaks, she must decide whether the man she loves is the monster she was sent to destroy.”
