She just got married, her grandmother now lives close by fullโ€‘time, she's trying to settle into newlywed life, and she's designing an entirely new home from the ground up. Everything is shifting at once... and it's starting to take a toll. Then she's attacked by a group of strangers she can't even identify โง and everything changes. Nikolai reacts the only way he knows how: he locks the world out and takes her to Russia under one rule - โง no one sees her โง no one touches her โง no one even breathes near her without consequences He protects her fiercely while she navigates emotional and physical changes, and the only people allowed near her are family. Uncle Lucien stands beside Nikolai - but he isn't just watching. He's hunting. Every person involved in Briar's attack, and anyone who knew and stayed silent, is being found one by one โง Briar is rising. Her enemies are falling. And as usual, her family isn't forgiving.
