Anyone can be swallowed by the darkest of shadows . . .
Alana Beaumont is the sole heir to Aquarius Social - but with the company under attack from an unseen enemy, her father decides to marry her off to a rival family in the hopes of securing an alliance, leaving Alana torn between her family duty and her thirst for revenge as her wedding day approaches.
But, following an unsuccessful assassination attempt, the wedding becomes the least of her concerns when she comes face to face with her rescuer: Thorn Beathach, owner of the rival business empire driving Aquarius under . . . and now her kidnapper.
Known as the richest and most ruthless of them all, Thorn protects his realm with an iron fist, and no one sees his face. Until Alana.
Convinced that she is only safe with him, Thorn wants to keep her in his enchanted castle forever, but she's not the docile beauty he expects, and he's not the only one who will find pleasure in their arrangement . . .
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Bestseller Zanetti (You Can Run) sizzles in this dark, fantasy-tinged retelling of "Beauty and the Beast," set in a world where power is derived from gemstones. Beautiful social media heiress Alana Beaumont likes to play the ditz online, but privately she's smart as a whip and passionate about social justice. Thorn Beathach is the craggy and somewhat ruthless loner at the helm of another of the four social media empires, which are all run via a connection to a specific jewel. Thorn is single-minded in his desire for Alana, whose father keeps her under lock and key following her brother's death in a car accident. After an assassination attempt in a crowded restaurant, Thorn whisks Alana to his remote castle, where an unlikely romance builds between them. When Alana's father compels Thorn to return her for a large garnet he needs to stay alive, Alana is livid. But as the body count rises and villains are unmasked, Alana learns that Thorn's precautions are what's keeping them both alive. Zanetti is a master of red herrings, keeping readers guessing as to who's behind the violence until the very end. Her characters elicit fierce loyalty from the first page, and her plotting is spot-on. Fans of dark romance won't be able to resist this.
