  DAMAGED BRIDE Sara McClaflin Release Date: January 22 AVAILABLE IN KINDLE UNLIMITED I ruined a man’s life because I trusted the wrong person. That mistake turned my name radioactive. Vegas forgives risk, not failure—and I learned fast that loyalty only goes one way when you’re the daughter no one ever wanted. Rosebud Investigations kept me alive, off-grid, and untouchable… Until the Shadow Brides called with a contract I couldn’t refuse. One year. One groom. Dante Valera—owner of Obsidian, king of Vegas, and the man who hates me most. He needs me to save his empire. I need him to help destroy my mother. Attraction doesn’t make us allies.
