Lila Hale spent five years as Colton Voss's dirty secret, absorbing his contempt while he chased her own sister Savannah Grant. He calls her a gold-digger climbing the Grant family ladder — never guessing she is a Grant by blood, the daughter the family lost and never stopped searching for.
When the sisters finally reunite, Savannah learns what Lila endured and responds by transferring shares, malls, and retail holdings into Lila's hands. But the family will demands Lila be engaged before twenty-four, and her stepmother Priscilla is circling the estate. Colton's cruelty becomes the least of her problems: she has to claim her inheritance before Priscilla claims it for her.
