Now, Peyton’s options become clear, but her salvation comes at a price she’s not sure she’s willing to pay. Peyton must risk it all for a chance at something she’s always wanted.

“Unbelievable—”
“I will not apologize for coming here, but I will apologize for cutting your G-string bikini into pieces and throwing out your Gucci perfume.”

Liam gave her a tight smile. “When you were nineteen. We had just opened the Caislean in Boston. It was sweltering and you and Maggie were going to join the guests at the pool, so I made up an errand to delay the two of you. Then I went after your suit with scissors.”
“Why?” Matthias asked.
“She was going to go out there in a white G-string bikini. I had to. She would have caused a riot.”
Matthias laughed, but he subsided after she shot him a dirty look….
