Synopsis
Nia Carter has spent twenty-six years believing she knows the truth about her life. After losing her mother, she expects grief, unpaid bills, and a lonely future.
Instead, at her mother's funeral, a mysterious stranger gives her an envelope containing an old photograph of her mother standing beside billionaire businessman Damian Vale.
On the back of the photograph are five words:
Ask him who your father is.
Before Nia can understand what it means, Damian appears with an astonishing claim—Nia may be the missing heir to half of the powerful Vale empire.
But becoming an heiress comes with a price.
Damian's family has secrets they have protected for decades, and someone is determined to keep Nia from discovering the truth about her mother's connection to the Vale family.
As Nia enters a world of wealth, power and dangerous family politics, she begins questioning everyone around her—including Damian.
Because the deeper she digs, the more she realizes that her mother's death may not have been the end of the story.
It may have been the beginning.
And if Nia wants the inheritance that was stolen from her, she'll have to uncover a secret powerful enough to destroy the entire Vale dynasty.
