ELLA
It's the wedding of the year—a lavish union of two powerhouses. But I'm only here for vengeance against the woman who stole my position as sole heir to my late father's company, TimeGem Moments, and shipped me off to boarding school. I've only made more enemies since. Tonight is my chance to reclaim control. Tonight, TimeGem's diamond-powered servers are this girl's best friend. Unless he ruins everything. Justice Beathach, the groom's unbearably hot brother, with hands built for war and a mouth that spells destruction. He's lethal, unyielding, and now has me in his crosshairs . . .
JUSTICE
Ella Rendale almost killed my brother once. Now, at his own wedding, she's almost done it again. I don't care if he's forgiven her or if she's been wronged. I care about one thing: the locked flash drive she leaves behind, spelling my destruction. She can run, she can hide, but when I find her, she'll give me what I want. But someone else wants her even more than I do—they want her dead. When our enemies close in, I'm forced to protect her, turning the fire between us into an uncontrollable weapon. Now, she's not just my quarry—she's my obsession. And I'll kill anyone who even thinks of taking her from me . . .
