Unwillingly His: Gilded Decadence Series, Book 5

The moment I slapped Lucian Manwarring, I knew I had just declared war. He may be the billionaire patriarch of the powerful Manwarring family with a reputation for getting everything he wants, but I'm not going to be his latest conquest. He stole my entire inheritance and expects me to just fall in line, to be the obedient bride he can mold into his perfect trophy wife. But he has no idea who he's dealing with. I'm not some meek, submissive girl ready to be controlled by an older man, even if he is commanding and handsome. I'm stubborn, outspoken, and ready to fight for my freedom. I won't be forced down the aisle, no matter how much power he wields or how determined he is to make me his possession. Lucian isn't used to defiance. He's used to getting his way, and he seems amused by my resistance—at first. But I see the darkness in his eyes, the ruthless determination that tells me he's not going to stop until he breaks me. But I won't let him. I'll fight him every step of the way, even if it means risking everything to defy him. Enter the seductive and treacherous world of New York's high society, where scandalous secrets and dangerous desires are guarded closely, in this dark romance by USA Today bestselling authors Zoe Blake and Alta Hensley.
