Growing up as the youngest Doughty meant missing out on a normal life.

I didn’t want the life I was dealt, but I also felt I had no choice except to embrace my legacy. My family had targets placed on their backs, simply because of our name and the power we held, so I knew I had to be ready for anything that came my way.

Being sent to boarding school was a way to protect me—and get me away from the very life I didn’t want—but it also brought me something else.

Shane.

My brothers took him in, and I chased away the nightmares that came with his tortured past, ignoring the burning desire I knew was there, because I didn’t want to ruin our fast-found friendship.

Now though? He’s severed the very bond I tried so hard to protect in the most brutal betrayal.

He went from being my best friend to my enemy, and now I want answers.
