Some empires are built on power.
Others are built on betrayal.
Strike of Betrayal: A Bound Empire Novel
Katarina Svensson swore she’d never return to Montana.
Ten years ago, she walked away from the ruthless dynasty that raised her.
From the ranch haunted by memories of the mother and brother, lost too young.
From a father who never truly returned from the wreckage of that grief.
She built a life far from the shadow of the Svensson empire—determined to prove she could succeed without the power, politics, and expectations that once defined her.
But empires have long memories.
When she’s called home to help save the family legacy, Kat is pulled back into a world where loyalty is currency, enemies hide behind tailored suits and polished smiles, and every move is a calculated play for power.
And the men she left behind are still there.
Cain — her father’s right hand. Precision wrapped in quiet authority. Years ago they crossed a line neither of them was supposed to… and neither of them has forgotten it.
Ren — the brilliant boy who grew into a devastatingly handsome, razor-sharp man. Younger. Dangerous in ways people underestimate. And he’s never stopped wanting her.
Hades — the quiet shadow at the edge of every room. One of the men her brother trusted to protect her when they were kids. He says little, but the way he watches her makes one thing clear. He’ll burn the world before he lets anyone hurt her.
Back in Montana, Kat quickly learns the empire she escaped is built on more than land and money. Beneath the surface lie buried secrets, ruthless enemies, and betrayals powerful enough to destroy everything her family built.
Including her.
To survive, Kat will have to face the ghosts she ran from, untangle the loyalties that bind them all together, and discover just how strong she’s become.
Because in a world built on power and deception… trust is the most dangerous risk of all.
For fans of sizzling tension, dangerous loyalties, fiercely intelligent heroines, and powerful men who fall first, Strike of Betrayal is the explosive first book in the Bound Empire Series.
