Beatrice Halifax's entire life has been controlled, sheltered inside the four walls of her family's house she had no hope of ever escaping. Until she was given an opportunity. One year to live her life in freedom. One year that would end in marriage. But just when the year is about to conclude a new man comes to town, one who threatens to completely unravel Beatrice's world. Lies surface and trust is broken as Beatrice is forced to face the truth about her family's past. Power corrupted this game, now she's the only one who can stop them.

PoweR

I had been shoved around a lot in my life, spoken down to and isolated, forgotten, and misunderstood by the very people in my life I held the dearest. But it hurt more when it came from Beau. The misunderstanding, the contrite tone, the instant isolation flooded in by the shutting of my door, left me with no choice but to only rely on myself.


I had been the only constant in my life. The only person I could rely on. Hell, even Abby Danvers screwed me over every chance she had proving I had a bad taste in friends. I anticipated more from Beau and perhaps too much.


I thought just because of the shared DNA we were twins in more ways than one and that he would fight for companionship, but I would be the only one fighting for myself. I couldn't wait for people to do it for me.
