Black Swan

Growing up as the daughter of the renowned Liam Hendrix, I assumed that I was the sole heir to my fathers empire.

Right up until my father ripped the rug out from under my feet and demanded I marry a man of his choosing. A man he sees fit to rule over the Hendrix Mafia.

A role I've always coveted.

Dean Lawson is my childhood best friend, my protector, and the love of my life. After he hurt me when we were younger, I swore never to get too close and give him that chance again.

Now we are being forced to marry.

I refuse to be a broodmare, to marry someone so that they can take everything I've always wanted.

I've got to get away. Start fresh somewhere else.

It won’t be that easy…

It turns out my father isn’t the biggest monster I’ll have to face if I want my chance at freedom.
