However, her father, the king of London's underworld, is determined to bring his headstrong daughter under his control. Nicholas Thorne, a man who has never been above lying, cheating, or stealing in his quest for power, seizes the opportunity when Alexandra's father offers him a fortune to swindle his daughter into marriage. Little does he know that he would fall in love with his mark.

In the seedy streets of London's East End, where happy endings are a rarity, Alexandra finds herself trapped in a web of deception and danger. When she discovers Nicholas's treachery, she vows to forget him for good. But the news of her secret marriage to London's most notorious crime lord spreads, and she finds herself in the crosshairs of those who wish her harm.

Back in close quarters with the man who betrayed her, passions ignite, secrets are revealed, and old enemies rise. Some are willing to kill to protect their interests, and Alexandra must navigate a perilous world filled with treachery and betrayal. As she struggles to protect herself and those she loves, Alexandra realizes that sometimes, the greatest love stories are the ones that are the most unexpected.
