Rising From Ashes: The Vengeful Heiress
Rising From Ashes: The Vengeful Heiress
“Four years ago, Beatrix McClure was the sole heiress to a massive trust, kidnapped and presumed dead in a fiery warehouse explosion. When she finally fought her way back to New York, she found her beloved cousin Denita standing at the altar of St. Patrick's Cathedral. Denita was wearing a couture bridal gown, marrying the billionaire titan Jaziel Small, and living lavishly on Beatrix's stolen inheritance. Beatrix had discovered it was Denita who wired two million dollars to the underground mercenaries who orchestrated the hit. She crashed their wedding of the century, throwing the authenticated wire transfers right into the flashing cameras of the press. But instead of seeking justice, Jaziel shielded the murderer. He used his limitless black card to pay off Denita's embezzled debts in front of federal marshals, threatened to bankrupt Beatrix's allies, and ordered her to leave the country in three days. Beatrix couldn't understand why the ruthless CEO was protecting the woman who destroyed her life. Was her murder just a convenient stepping stone for his corporate empire? And if he truly cared for his new fiancée, why did he shatter a crystal glass with his bare hands and lose his mind with violent jealousy the moment another man touched Beatrix's shoulder? Beatrix looked at the man who once held her secrets and the cousin who stole her life, her heart turning to absolute ice. "I won't stop until you both have nothing left."”
