Ella Harper has spent years drifting between strip clubs and truck stops with her unstable mother. When her mother dies, Ella faces life completely alone. Callum Royal changes everything by bringing her to his southern coast mansion filled with luxury she has never known. His five sons despise her presence immediately. Reed Royal stands out among his brothers as both the most attractive and the most determined to destroy her. He wants her gone, back to the poverty she came from. Reed believes she will never belong in their world of wealth and privilege. Ella must navigate the family's deceptions and excesses while the Royal boys work against her. She discovers that surviving in this palace requires her to fight back with equal force. The stakes involve more than just a place to live.
