SteeledApathy

Emery Northwood, a quiet and fiercely independent artist, lives a secluded life in the coastal town of Eldenwood. Known for her hauntingly beautiful paintings, she prefers her life away from the entanglements of the city. But her world is thrown off-balance when she receives an unexpected letter, naming her as the heir to the Northwood estate—a powerful legacy from the family she never truly knew.

To her surprise, Emery’s inheritance comes with one condition: she must marry Rayna Sinclair, an enigmatic businesswoman from the heart of Valmont. Rayna, the sole heir to the influential Sinclair Empire, is known for her brilliance, charm, and a heart wrapped in secrets. To the public, Rayna is a desirable yet distant figure, adored by many but untouchable. Unfazed, Emery publicly rejects the marriage proposal, but her rejection only deepens Rayna’s fascination.

As Emery steps into the intricate world of family legacy, high society, and hidden rivalries, she learns shocking truths about her past—and realizes that her claim to the Northwood estate is not as secure as she thought. With Rayna drawn irresistibly to Emery's defiance and spirit, their budding attraction complicates an already delicate situation. Together, they must navigate family betrayal, romantic tension, and buried secrets that could tear them apart…or finally bring them closer than either expected.
