Chains Beneath the Mask

Elowen_B
She doesn’t experience love. She establishes the guidelines. She also never wears a single mask. Marrie Rose Alverez is an estranged heiress who refuses to belong to anyone; she is wealthy, careless, and untouchable. She uses power as a strategy, desire as a weapon, and love as a vulnerability she vowed never to exploit. Then Evan Knight comes into her life. He challenges Marrie instead of pursuing her because he is cold, collected, and dangerously perceptive. What starts out as a conflict over secrets and scandals develops into a high-stakes struggle for dominance that neither of them is prepared to lose. As adversaries get closer and masks start to come off, Marrie has to confront the reality: Is she really free, or is her disguise keeping her bound?
