From USA Today bestselling author L.J. Shen comes a breathtaking
installment in the Cruel Castaways series about finding love in the wake
of tragedy and betrayal.
Arsène Corbin does not intend to marry for love. His fiancée has always
been a means to an end, a woman he wants to conquer. But when she dies
suddenly in an accident, Arsène's grand plan unravels.
Still reeling from his fiancée's death, he meets Winnifred Ashcroft, a
struggling actress who lands a coveted role in a play at his
theater...and knows things about his late fiancée no one else does. The
only problem? They can't stand each other.
Backstage at Arsène's theater, Winnie begins to let down her guard
around the tempestuous billionaire. She appreciates his wit and quirky
affection for astronomy. And Arsène, jaded as he is, respects Winnie's
headstrong personality.
Tragedy and betrayal bring them together, but will their painful pasts
hold them back--or fuel their desire?
