Backlash of the Heiress: A Lethal Return

She drowned once—by the hand of the man she trusted.

Ivy Winslow is the sole heiress to a global shipping empire, a woman who prefers the company of her six rescue cats and the open ocean to the glittering world of Manhattan's elite. When her father introduces her to Julian Ashford—charming, handsome, seemingly perfect—she agrees to the match out of duty. But on a quiet weekend cruise, Julian reveals his true nature. He locks Ivy and her parents in the yacht's lower hold and watches them sink into the Atlantic.

Then she wakes up.

It's three years earlier. The wedding hasn't happened. Julian hasn't shown his hand. Ivy has been given a second chance—and she intends to use it.

With the help of Alexander Black, a billionaire pearl magnate whose family carries secrets as old as the ocean itself, Ivy begins to unravel the Ashfords' carefully constructed empire of greed and murder. But as she plays the role of the trusting heiress, walking the knife's edge between seduction and survival, she discovers that revenge is not the only fire burning in her heart.

She came back from the dead to destroy the man who killed her. She didn't expect to fall in love along the way.

Backlash of the Heiress is a gripping conspiracy thriller with a billionaire romance at its core—a story of betrayal, second chances, and the fierce determination of a woman who refuses to drown twice.
