Series: Better Than Revenge

Release Date: October 22, 2024

​

Blood is thicker than water, but nothing is sweeter than revenge.

I’m Solaris James. A megastar. The darling of the media. America’s sweetheart.

Beneath the flawless image, though, I’m no stranger to pain. After my father’s death, my family abandoned my mother and me, leaving us to fend for ourselves. I swore I’d never need them again, and for years, I didn’t.

Then, on my eighteenth birthday, my father’s lawyer delivers a bombshell: I’m the sole heir to the James Empire. Suddenly, my life is turned upside down, and people from my past start resurfacing.

One of them is Silas O’Conner.

Silas wasn’t just any part of my past. He was my best friend. My confidant. The one person who knew me better than anyone—and the secret love of my life. When he deserted me too, it shattered me. I never thought I’d see him again.

But then, tragedy strikes. Someone in my family murders my mother, and I’m consumed with a need for vengeance. I’ll do whatever it takes to hunt down the person responsible. Silas may have walked away once, but this time, he has no choice—he’s either helping me find the truth and deliver justice, or he will become my enemy.

He chooses me.

The moment Silas steps back into my world, everything changes. The connection between us is undeniable, and before I know it, he’s woven himself into my life once more. But with him comes a dark, dangerous passion I can’t ignore. And it’s a reminder of the family lesson I learned all too well: nothing is ever as it seems.

As the past unravels and buried secrets emerge, I’m left wondering if I can truly trust the man I once loved—or if he’s just as bad as my family.
