The Unfeigned Blossom

Ivy Inkwood took the blame for her stepsister's crime and went to prison. Desperate to survive, she struck a cold bargain with powerful businessman Leo Blythe: one night together in exchange for her freedom. Released and pregnant, Ivy sets out to dismantle the Inkwood family from within. Her plan is precise, but in the heat of revenge she is pulled into an unexpected love for Leo. As hidden identities and long-buried lies unravel, Ivy faces crushing betrayal from her own family and relentless opposition from Leo's controlling mother. Torn between vengeance and the warmth she never expected, Ivy races toward a final reckoning where justice must be won. In the end the Inkwoods fall, and Ivy finds love—and peace—in Leo's arms.
