Jameson Blackthorn has always lived on the edge, of the family, of the empire, and of something darker. Secretly sensitive, unpredictable, and haunted by the past, Jameson has never fit the mould his father tried to force him into. He was closest to their mother – now gone – and her absence only sharpens the distance between him and the brutal world around him.

Pushed to finally fall in line, Jameson meets a woman unlike anyone he’s known, elegant, self-aware, and carrying her own quiet battles. But while she opens up about her scars, Jameson clings to his silence, afraid of what might spill out.

Their connection is instant, unexpected… and entirely forbidden.

Warren Blackthorn doesn’t trust Jameson with anything, especially love. But as their bond deepens in secret, Jameson starts to question everything: the family, the fear, and the version of himself he’s always been told to suppress.

Maybe he isn’t broken. Maybe he’s just been waiting for someone who sees him clearly enough to stay.
