Reed Gilbride arrives at the Sunnyledge estate with a single purpose: to find evidence that will prove his legitimate birth. The property holds the key to his identity, but Chastity Somers currently lives there and has no intention of giving up her home. She finds Reed both irritating and attractive, creating complications she never expected. Reed must conduct his search while navigating Chastity's resistance and his growing desire for her. The estate becomes a battleground where legal claims clash with personal feelings. As Reed digs deeper into family secrets, Chastity discovers that protecting her future means confronting truths about the past. Their conflict transforms into something neither anticipated. This third installment in the Rogues Club Series delivers passion and humor as two stubborn people fight for what they want most.
