I'm risking everything, pursuing a job I haven't secured and chasing a life as unpredictable as the isolated town pulling me in. But when sinister figures lurk in the shadows of my new home and gifts appear uninvited, my paranoia guides me to a bar, where an innocent night spirals into my worst nightmare.
I wake in a secluded house, engulfed by endless orchards, trapped by three dangerously gorgeous brothers who lured me here for a role I won't accept. It's not the confinement or caring for their siblings that terrifies me-it's Colten. The cold, ruthless brother, running the empire and scarred by a past he can't escape.
Feelings ignite, boundaries shatter, and I find myself unraveling the brother who refuses to let anyone in. I'm torn between choosing the freedom that's always defined me and surrendering to a love I'll never outrun.
COLTEN:
Every step is calculated to pull her into our world. One impulsive move to our hometown and she unknowingly seals her fate. We don't ask for consent-we claim what's ours.
Now she's here, and I'm losing control, drawn toward a feeling I refuse to acknowledge. My brothers and I brought her to Lindenvale Hill for our siblings, but I can't deny-she's here for us, too. The teacher we abducted because people always leave.
She says she wants to stay. I want to believe her. But saying she'll stay is as easy as leaving, and that's exactly what I'm afraid of.
