THE NURSE WHO SEDUCED THE BEAST
Olivia Hayes has spent her life in survival mode, balancing long shifts as a nurse during the week and working at a nightclub on weekends to provide for her sick mother and younger brother. With no time for friends and no patience for sympathy, Olivia is fiercely independent, sharp, and driven. But her world is thrown into chaos when a mysterious man named Edmund Darnell arrives at her doorstep, claiming to be her grandfather—and revealing that Olivia is the heir to a dangerous legacy she never knew existed.
As Olivia grapples with this shocking revelation, she meets Asher Lockwood, a powerful and elusive bachelor who has spent his life despising women for their perceived frailty and deception. Asher is drawn to Olivia’s defiance, strength, and unwillingness to be impressed by his wealth or status. His curiosity about her turns into an obsession, as he begins to quietly monitor her from the shadows, captivated by her resilience and the mystery surrounding her.
But when Olivia and Asher’s paths cross again at a high-society charity gala, she finds herself unknowingly pulled deeper into a world of influence, shadowy alliances, and dangerous power plays. As Edmund pressures her to embrace the legacy left behind by her late father—one that could reshape her future—Olivia struggles to trust anyone, least of all Asher, whose intentions remain unclear.
With enemies closing in and her family’s safety at risk, Olivia must uncover the truth about her father’s past, harness the strange abilities she’s begun to manifest, and decide who she can trust. Torn between the allure of Asher’s interest and the danger lurking around every corner, Olivia finds herself on the precipice of a new world, where every decision could lead to power—or destruction.
In this riveting tale of legacy, love, and betrayal, Olivia will have to confront not only her past but the dark inheritance that may define her future—and the man who may either save her or be her undoing.
