The Prince and the Fallen Queen

Isabella Harper gave ten years, three unborn children, and her soul to Xavier Langford’s criminal empire. She was his enforcer, his lover, and his queen—until he found a "pure" replacement. When a vengeful enemy captures them both, Xavier makes the ultimate betrayal: he saves his new obsession and leaves Isabella to be brutalized and killed in the ashes of a derelict warehouse. But Isabella doesn’t die. Rescued by Jasper Nolan, a man who has waited a decade to repay a life-debt, she is no longer a pawn to be discarded. As the Shadow Syndicate begins to rot from the inside, Isabella will marry for power, live for revenge, and force the man who abandoned her to realize that the woman he left for dead was the only thing keeping him alive. In this world, loyalty is a death sentence, but survival is a war.
