Gilded Betrayal
Blurb
Julian Vance built his empire on ambition and a ruthless intellect, but he keeps his greatest vulnerability a secret: the haunted memories of a past he can't escape. When sharp, no-nonsense journalist Amelia Hayes is assigned to profile him, she sees past the polished facade to the man beneath. Their unexpected connection burns with a fierce intensity that threatens to unravel everything he's worked for.
But Julian's perfect world is a gilded cage, and not everyone wants him to find happiness. The cunning and beautiful socialite Seraphina Thorne, a woman with a dark obsession and a hidden agenda, has been pulling strings in the shadows for years. As Julian and Amelia's love deepens, Seraphina's schemes escalate, threatening to dismantle Julian's company, destroy his reputation, and tear the lovers apart for good. Can Amelia and Julian expose the villainess lurking in plain sight before they lose everything, or will Seraphina's perfect plan finally succeed in its final, devastating betrayal?
