Story Notes

Summary

Alena Morosova has never been denied a single thing in her life. As the sole heir to one of Russia's most powerful old-money families, she is indulged, entitled and convinced that no desire is beyond her reach. Love, she assumes, should be no different. That belief shatters when she fixates on Maksim Kirovsky, the son of the Russian Tsar and the first man to reject her. Humiliation quickly turns to obsession. Alena devises a plan to infiltrate his life, to claim him in ways he cannot resist, but fate has other designs. One misstep shatters her world, and she wakes up in a stranger’s bed, in the freezing wilderness, stripped of her name, her past and her memories. Viktor Kozlov is a man who has buried every desire and every memory that once scorched him. Solitude is his shield, until the half-frozen, defiant woman he saved refuses to be ignored. He should send her away. He wants to send her away. Yet every shiver that isn’t from the cold, every glance that lingers too long, and every brush of her hand against his skin ignites a fire he cannot contain. She is bold, fierce, untouchable, and impossible to resist. Isolation becomes temptation, and desire becomes obsession. In the quiet of the frozen peaks, stolen touches and heated glances give way to moments charged with a dangerous intimacy. Walls he long thought impenetrable begin to fall, secrets unravel, and for the first time in years, Viktor’s control slips entirely. When her memories return and the world she once knew comes calling, Viktor faces a choice: let her go, or fight for their love—and a life—he swore he’d never reclaim. Because this woman, once nameless and lost, has claimed more than his attention… She has claimed his heart, and Viktor is no longer the man who can let her go. In
