Ariana Cameloe stood frozen behind the door, her heart splitting as her fiancé and best friend sealed her fate. The people she trusted most had been plotting her destruction all along.

This time, she’s the hunter.

Armed with secrets and sharp instincts, Ariana steps back into her high-society world with a new agenda: expose the traitors, reclaim her father’s legacy, and build her own empire from the ashes.

The only problem?

To Jesse Ren, the powerful, aloof billionaire her grandfather chose. Cold, unreadable, and dangerously influential, Jesse wasn’t part of her plan but he just might become her strongest shield… or her greatest threat.
