ASHES OF THE HEIR
ASHES OF THE HEIR
“Some inherit crowns. Others inherit ashes. He returned for the truth. She became the key.”
Nathan Voss was only ten when the car explosion that killed his parents turned him into an orphan and an heir. But while the world believed it was a tragic accident, Nathan remembers fire, fear, and a voice that told him to run. Since then, he’s lived under the suffocating control of his uncle,the man who took him in and raised him not with love, but with manipulation, secrecy, and ruthless ambition.
Now, nearly eighteen years later, Nathan is a man haunted by shadows and driven by vengeance. He returns to Vosstech not as the lost heir, but as a storm cloaked in silence, ready to reclaim what was stolen. The empire is his by blood, but his uncle has no intention of handing over power. With his twenty-eighth birthday and rightful inheritance approaching fast, Nathan must move carefully. Trust no one. Show no weakness. And most importantly, find the one piece of the puzzle that’s still missing: the truth about that night.
Stephanie Quinn is bold, intelligent, and tired of playing nice. Her career at Vosstech is her lifeline.A chance to prove herself in a world where ambition is often punished, especially for a woman. So when she’s offered a rare opportunity to lead a high-stakes project, she takes it… even if it means working under the notoriously cold and enigmatic Nathan Voss.
From the start, sparks fly but not the romantic kind. Nathan is arrogant, guarded, and infuriatingly unreadable. Stephanie is defiant, sharp-tongued, and absolutely not the kind of woman who backs down. Their dynamic is electric, volatile… and dangerously magnetic. But what begins as a clash of wills soon becomes something far more complicated as secrets start to unravel.
Nathan is hiding more than his pain.He’s hiding a past that’s linked to Stephanie in ways neither of them fully understand. Because the night his parents died, her family played a role in saving him. And when Nathan discovers the truth, it’s not anger he feels it’s confusion, guilt, and a growing fear that the woman he’s beginning to care for may be the one person who could destroy him… or save him.
As corporate power struggles escalate, enemies close in, and the lines between duty, revenge, and desire blur, Nathan and Stephanie are forced into a dangerous alliance. But in a world built on lies, can they trust each other long enough to uncover the truth? Or will the fire between them reduce everything including their hearts to ash?
