Hours after giving birth, Elena Ashford is pressured by her own parents to surrender her twelve-percent stake in the family company because they believe her newborn son has no father. Then Ethan Laurent, the billionaire who controls the debt keeping Ashford Development alive, walks into the room and claims both Elena and the baby as his family. What begins as a cruel hospital confrontation quickly exposes a forty-three-million-dollar fraud, an attempted killing, and a betrayal that forces Elena to decide whether blood is enough to make someone family.
