His Aries Heiress by Cyn

Two Aries. One throne. And an empire that is rightfully both of theirs to claim.

A surprise for her birthday turned into tragedy, leaving Cassydie scrambling to find her purpose.

When she finds out she’s adopted, the desire to connect to her birth family is her top priority. The last bit of her money is spent on hiring a private investigator, who leads her to Ellwood, a charming city that’s built on blood and power. At the center of it is Grim, her biological father, who is on his deathbed. And at his side stands Marcellus, a man raised in Grim’s image but who does not share the same blood.
When Grim dies, Cassydie is introduced to a world she never knew existed. Luxury and extravagance are a front for things that put her morals to the test.
Marcellus made a promise to protect her, but what he didn’t expect was to fall for her. While he does his best to hide his feelings, he also keeps a dangerous secret: Cassydie is the rightful heir to the throne he now sits on.

Rule number one of the game only the hood elite play . . . watch out for those crowns because they almost always come laced with deception.
