When her father dies, the last Cross expects freedom at last—and plans to walk away from the House of Cross with the one thing no one can replace: the formula for the drug she created. But the empire doesn’t die with him. It’s handed to her stepbrother, Asad Prince, a man ruthless enough to claim the business and audacious enough to demand her along with it. Asad’s leverage is brutal: marry him, or watch the few people she loves pay the price. Forced proximity turns into a dangerous game of control and temptation, where enemies-to-lovers sparks and morally grey choices blur every line. Perfect for fans of arranged marriage romance, fairy tale reimaginings, and “touch her\/him and die” intensity.
