Owen’s life has never really felt like his own. As his father’s only son, he’s left carrying the burden of marrying for the family, and not for love. When the news came that a match had been made, Owen went on a bender, sleeping his way through one person after another all summer. But as he watches Aurora walk down the aisle, the arranged marriage suddenly doesn’t seem all that bad. She’s nothing like he expected, her alabaster skin and violet eyes sweeping Owen off his feet. Realizing she’s never been touched, Owen discovers he has something that’s truly his for the first time in his life. And when Aurora willingly offers him her heart and body, he starts to believe their marriage could be more than an obligation. Aurora could give Owen the one thing he’s always longed for—love.
