She largely ignores her status as heiress to the infamous Blackstone dynasty and hopes to keep her family’s heartbreak and scandal behind her. Patrick O’Neill survived a hardscrabble youth to become a lawyer for downtrodden Irish immigrants in his community. He is proud of his work, even though he struggles to afford his ramshackle law office. All that changes when he accepts a case that is sure to resurrect the Blackstones’ legacy of greed and corruption. The family tasks Gwen with convincing Patrick to drop the case, but a 30-year-old mystery takes a shocking twist neither of them saw coming. Now, as they navigate a burgeoning attraction and growing danger, Patrick and Gwen will be forced to decide if the risk to the life they’ve always held dear is worth the reward.
