He grew up as the illegitimate heir to the Kingston empire, sent to Harvard by a father who saw him as backup insurance. He walked away from that world, became a Navy SEAL, and now works as right hand to billionaire Grayson Bennett. He built his own fortune and needs nothing from the Kingston name or the man who never claimed him properly. His half brother can inherit the family business. Then she appears at his door. The princess he once wanted more than his father's approval. She tells him the Kingston patriarch is in trouble and needs saving. He has no interest in rescuing the man who treated him as a mistake, but he cannot resist her. She represents everything he walked away from, everything he told himself he didn't want. They come from different worlds within the same broken family. She belongs to the legitimate side while he remains the outsider. Yet she insists both she and his father need him to return. The pull between them grows stronger even as logic tells him they don't belong together. He wants just one taste of what he left behind.
