Synopsis

Book One

MAJESTY INTERNATIONAL is more than a premier matchmaking service, securing the fortunes and power of world elites via carefully calculated marriages. Majesty is a lifestyle club with a range of exclusive benefits requiring an oath of secrecy from members to its governing Crown and a pledge to uphold its motto Once & Always. Once a member, always a member.

THE GROOM

He is a dangerous mafia billionaire they call Frankenstein. I am his mail-order bride.

THE BRIDE

The writing I spied on that gold-embossed paper inside Father's office was a tiny window into the twisted darkness that would become my future. It said nothing about arranged marriages sealed with blood oaths, or death threats over broken vows. Father would only say that marrying me off was for the benefit of the family legacy. Mother let it slip that Father was being blackmailed. I put two and two together. Father was desperate. His mafioso dealings had caught up to him. I was his last bargaining chip. Mother convinced herself that I would be happier finishing college in California. She promised I only had to endure the marriage for three years. My choices have been made for me. All I can do is make the best of it until I earn my freedom. But I've learned that some vows can not be broken, and the only way out is death.

Book Two

The Initiate: "I'm not supposed to love a missing dead girl..."

One year ago, Brynlee Jones was brutally attacked and threatened on the UCLA campus after witnessing a crime. After fleeing Los Angeles to start a new life in Vegas, she's determined to finish her degree while working the night shift. But there is no escaping the past.

When rich-kid law student Case Channing is given his fraternity's initiation task of finding a missing person, it leads him to Brynlee, this strange but beautiful girl unlike anyone he's known. But meeting her becomes the most dangerous thing he's ever done, setting a deadly chain of events into motion that forces him to reckon with his family's mafia connections and the dark memories of his past. Case doesn't know what he's up against until it's too late.

Together, Case and Brynlee must find a way out...
