Synopsis

Information is power, and those who control it live like gods. In my world, billionaires play deadly games of insult and influence, where magic is the dirtiest weapon of all. Here, even a powerful princess can be swallowed by the darkest of shadows …

They christened me Alana—and while the name means beauty, beneath that surface is a depth I allow very few to see. I’m sole heir to Aquarius Social, a media giant about to succumb to an unseen enemy. My father’s solution is to marry me off to the son of a competing family. My reaction?
Not a chance. Now I have just a week before the wedding to change my fate.

Who knew the unforeseen twist would be an assassination attempt on me and an unwanted rescue by Thorn Beathach, the head of the rival social media empire driving Aquarius under? The richest, most ruthless of them all, the Beast protects his realm with an iron rule: no one sees his face.
When he shows himself to me, I know he’ll never let me go.

Thorn may think he can lock me in his castle forever, but I’m not the docile Beauty he expects. If the Beast wants to tie me up, I’m going to take pleasure from every minute of it … and we’ll just see who ends up shackled.

This is going to be a hard one to give a comprehensive review to, mainly because the dichotomies are so pronounced. On the one hand, Rebecca Zanetti is an amazing writer.
