She was chosen. He was claimed. Together, they build something lasting. Oliver Cornell, heir to an English title, has never known tenderness from his blood. Raised under cold expectations and withheld affection, he's come to see family as duty—not devotion. But one twist of fate sets him adrift... and brings him into the life of Violet Winters.
She never asked to be adopted. She simply was—by love. Violet doesn't meet anyone's definition of proper. A privateer with wild courage and a life lived by her own terms, she's the daughter of a man who saw her and said "mine." She's never needed society's approval—but when she needs an ally to navigate its rules, she offers Oliver a bargain: a marriage in name only.
What begins in strategy becomes sanctuary. In Violet's fierce loyalty, Oliver finds the love he's always craved. In Oliver's quiet kindness, Violet glimpses a home she never dared imagine. And slowly, they discover that family is not who you're born to—but who shows up, stands beside you, and chooses you with their whole heart.
His family gave him a title. Hers gave her everything. And together, they build the kind that lasts.
If you've ever longed for family not born, but found—and the comfort of belonging exactly where you're seen... this story is yours.
