Master of Deceit: A Power Broker Novel. Power Brokers, #3

Gabrielle:Chattel. A commodity to be bought and sold. I'd stopped planning my dream wedding years ago, but I had hoped there might at least be some affection involved in whatever merger I ended up in. At best, I'd say Grant is cold and distant. I try not to think about what he might be at worst. Grant:She is nothing more than a pawn in what is already a very long game. I can't afford to let her under my skin. If I do, she'll destroy me, and her smile will be my downfall.
Not the fake one she shows the world, but the real one nobody else has ever seen.
