And his heart—that he’s worked so hard to protect—falls straight into the hands of the distant, cold, and beautiful son of a dynasty…Silas Marsh is set to inherit the family fortune, but his father is determined his heir be the “perfect” son. Before Silas can take over the company and end its shady business practices, he must prove himself worthy…and deny his true nature.Silas must choose: stand up to his father by being true to himself and his undeniable feelings for Max. Or pretend to be someone he is not in order to inherit everything. Even if it means sacrificing a chance at happiness and real love.

I read this book as part of a readathon that encouraged me to read a romance that is outside my comfort zone. I do not read many male/male romances, so I chose this one. The actual romance in the book is decent, but I find the context of the mens' lives and their families to be too overdone. I just cannot envision this scenario actually happening, which usually turns me off of a book.
This is the story of Max and Silas, both of whom have major trauma and/or drama in their background and currently in their lives. Max is a recovering drug addict who spent time selling his body on the streets, and Silas is a billionaire's heir who is also a recovering addict and spent six months at a conversion therapy camp as a teenager. The two of them cross paths when Max becomes a private nurse for Silas's ailing father.
Honestly, this book is just too much for me. The plot involves romance, business intrigue, family drama, a fake engagement, and more. The characters are recovering drug addicts, past prostitutes, conversion therapy survivors, family outcasts, billionaires, billionaire's son with Asperger's syndrome, homophobic fathers, etc. I would have preferred a simplified story that put the focus more on the growing love between Max and Silas and less on all the drama around them.
I've decided I am far too picky with which books I give 5 stars to, resulting in me rarely ever giving 5 stars. I thoroughly enjoyed this book from start to finish, so Emma Scott can have all the stars⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
