"Raised to resist. Bred to fight. Survival is in their blood, and surrender is never an option. Surrender is what Maxim Cade demanded of Lennix Hunter's body and heart, but she had other plans. Together they were fast-burning fascination and combustible chemistry, the son of an oil baron and the warrior daughter fighting to preserve her heritage. She trusted him, and he turned out to be a thief who stole her love. Still, if what they had was a lie, why had it felt so real? Now, the man she swore to hate is about to have it all, and he wants Lennix at his side. But when the two of them are forced to face the unthinkable, fate tests them at every turn. Navigating a treacherous political landscape in their quest for justice, Maxim and Lennix soon learn that power is a game, and they are merely the pawns and players. Facing insurmountable odds, will they win the world, or will they lose it all?" -- Provided by publisher.
