Five years ago, Irene Sterling fled Silver City in disgrace - pregnant, disowned by both her birth family and adoptive parents. Now she's back as a renowned surgeon, with three brilliant five-year-old children in tow. Her mysterious pregnancy remains the one puzzle she can't solve, with no memory of that fateful night.
When she accepts a lucrative offer to treat Adam Haven, the ruthless CEO of Haven Enterprise, Irene finds herself moving next door to the most powerful man in Silver City. Confined to a wheelchair after an accident, Adam is used to commanding everything and everyone around him. But his new doctor proves infuriatingly immune to his authority, even as her jasmine perfume stirs memories he can't quite grasp.
As tension crackles between the ice-cold CEO and his stubborn doctor, three genius children work behind the scenes on "Operation Mom's Happiness." After all, what better father could they ask for than the man who has passed their DNA test?

Every nerve ending in my body was on fire as their pleasure forced its way through our fated mark. My ex's hands on another woman transmitted directly to me, my wolf thrashing wildly inside as wave after wave of unwanted sensation flooded me. I curled up on the floor, biting my lip until I tasted blood, desperate to stay quiet while their intimacy invaded my mind and body without mercy.
"Stop," I begged, tears streaming down my face. "Make it stop."
But the real torture? When I finally collapsed into sleep, exhausted from fighting the bond, only to dream of him - Blake, my ex's future father-in-law. His storm-cloud eyes turned molten gold as he backed me against the wall, not an inch between us. "You're mine," he growled against my ear, his touch transforming my mark from silver to gold as pleasure replaced pain.
Forbidden doesn't begin to describe what's happening between us. I'm training his young son while carrying his daughter's fiancé's mark on my neck. Jackson betrayed me for power, rejecting our fated bond to pursue political ambition. Meanwhile, my father sits in prison for treason he didn't commit, and Blake might be my only chance to save him.
Will his golden threads completely erase Jackson's silver claim on me someday? Is this connection between us destiny or disaster? Some marks are written in silver, others in gold—but the most dangerous ones are etched in sin.
