Fern Adair has spent most of her life tucked away in her family's Chicago home. There, she's protected from startled stares and uncomfortable questions about the scarred half of her face. But when her parents begin to host elaborate weekly dinners to socialize Fern--and to find her a husband--the refuge of her sheltered life fractures.
Despite her wealth, and her father's power as a district court judge, no potential suitor looks her way twice. Until one evening, a mysterious stranger takes a seat at the Adair's dinner table.
Calvin Rosetti, older brother and enforcer to one of the city's most dangerous criminal kingpins, doesn't have honorable intentions. He wants revenge against Fern's brother, who wronged the Rosetti family in an unforgivable way, and Cal plans to use Fern to even the score.
Drawn out of her reclusive life and into Cal's illicit underworld, Fern discovers a side of herself she's never known, proving she is much more than just a pawn. She and Cal realize what it is to love someone they shouldn't--and it comes with violent consequences. With Cal's scheme falling apart, and a crucial choice set before them, Fern will come to know what she's capable of, scars and all.
