She came to study. She stayed to destroy a billionaire empire... until she fell in love with the one man cursed to die if she did. When Amelia Hart receives a prestigious scholarship to Blackwood College, she thinks it’s fate. What no one knows is: she’s not there for the degree — she’s there for revenge. Decades ago, billionaire Richard Blackwood betrayed her father and built his empire on stolen gold. A deadly curse followed, claiming the life of every woman who dared to marry into the Blackwood family. Now, Richard wants Amelia to marry his heir, the ruthless and entitled Damien Blackwood. But Amelia’s heart rebels — because it’s not Damien who draws her in... it’s Elias, the quiet, broken youngest son haunted by his mother’s death and blamed by everyone. As forbidden passion ignites, secrets unravel, and the truth behind the family curse surfaces, Amelia must choose: destroy the Blackwoods as her father wished — or save Elias from the curse her love might awaken. Lies. Legacy. A love that could break the curse… or trigger it. Welcome to the Blackwoods — where love is dangerous, and secrets are buried in gold.
