From the back cover

Cora Sterling was taken into the Sterling household as an "adopted" daughter after her mother, the mistress of a Sterling heir, handed her over at the estate gates. Treated as a stain on the family name, she grows up walking on eggshells, despised by her father and Mrs. Sterling and tormented by her half-sisters.

At fifteen she meets Kael Pierce, a quiet boy with severe autism, and years later Grandpa Pierce arranges their marriage. Kael wants nothing to do with her; he refuses her touch, destroys her gifts, and turns to Sylvia, a girl who shares his love of music. When Grandpa Pierce drugs Kael to force an heir, Kael's rage and disgust leave Cora humiliated and alone.

Now Cora has decided to stop being a pawn and break free.

Inside the book Opening excerpt

My mother was the mistress of a man who’d married into the Sterling dynasty.

But she didn’t know the man was married until after I was born. The second his wife found out, the coward cut my mother off completely.

After years of scraping by on scraps, my mother stormed the gates of the Sterling estate, brandishing a paternity test and causing a scene. To protect their precious reputation, the Sterlings took me in, passing me off as an adopted daughter.
