Royal Bargain by Renee Zara

I broke his heart once.

Walked away after ten months of fire because he couldn’t give me the commitment I craved.

Now I’m back – with his daughter.

The secret I swore I’d never tell.

Liam should turn me away.

Instead, he takes us in.

Not because he wants me.

Because the Bratva wants me dead.

My father, Anatoly Volkov, doesn’t forgive betrayal.

And I’m the one betrayal he can’t bury quietly.

Liam swears this is only about protecting our child.

But when his touch lingers too long…

When his eyes burn too hot…

I know it’s a lie.

We’re still combustible.

Still star-crossed.

Still everything we shouldn’t be.

But secrets have a way of exploding.

And when the truth comes out —

It won’t just shatter our second chance.

It will destroy us all.
