Fractured Vows - Eden Falls, #2

A secret daughter. A ruthless Thorne heiress. A lethal ex-con back to claim his throne and his family.

Jessica Thorne is the "prized songbird" of a dynasty built on blood and deception. For seven years, she has worn a corset of lies to protect her daughter, Lila, the living proof of a forbidden night with the man her family tried to destroy. Now trapped in a forced political engagement to a corrupt senator, she is one step away from falling into the abyss.

Then Caleb Reyes returns.

Seven years ago, he was driven out of town with a blood price on his head, leaving behind the only girl he ever loved. He isn't the boy Jessica remembers; he's a man forged in shadows, a predator who parts the elite like a sea of pawns. Returning to uncover a seven-year-old betrayal, he finds a daughter he never knew existed, and a fire that refuses to be extinguished.

In Eden Falls, the Thornes don't just own the town, they own the souls within it. As the "aviary of the damned" moves to crush them, Caleb and Jessica must navigate a lethal web of small-town corruption and blood feuds. The clock is ticking toward a public engagement that will seal Jessica's fate forever.

They already burned the world down once. This time, they're staying to rule the ashes.
