She was sent to spy on him to clear her father's debts.
Elara has no choice about it, and getting close to the heir Lucien pulls her into betrayal, love she did not plan for and loss she cannot undo. Then the truth about her own noble lineage comes out and she has a vindictive rival and a complicated past to answer for at once. With power struggles closing in and real danger on the table, what Lucien is willing to give up may be the only thing that mends this.
