Rheanna Villden never expected to become a bride—especially not to the notorious Ice Dragon King. When a deception forces her into a wedding meant for her stepsister, she vows to escape the monster she's been warned about. Yet each attempt at freedom mysteriously pulls her deeper into his world, and the cruel irony of fate becomes undeniable: the man she's fleeing is not the man she was meant to marry. The bridegroom is an imposter. ----- As the truth unravels, so does Rheanna's resolve. The real man behind the legend—Draven—stands before her with eyes like winter itself, and suddenly her careful plans crumble. When passion ignites between them in stolen moments, Rheanna finds herself surrendering to something far more dangerous than duty: desire. "You've held me through countless nights. You've seen every part of me. You've kissed me until I forget my own name," she breathes against his lips, her body pressed close in the moonlit pool. "Will you finally make me your wife?" Her gaze locks with his, blazing blue eyes meeting hers with an intensity that demands everything. Draven's response is primal—his hands claiming her, his mouth consuming hers with a hunger that speaks of his own surrender. In a world where destiny deceives and impostors rule, Rheanna discovers that running from fate was never the answer. Sometimes, the only way out is to surrender completely.
