Intrigued: The Forbidden Billionaire Jasper Blackstone

Holly Henderson didn't know what she was agreeing to when she accepted the Blackstones' invitation. She only knew she owed them, and that spending the holidays at their ancestral estate was better than spending them alone.

She didn't expect Jasper.

Jasper Blackstone has spent his entire life cleaning up the messes his powerful family leaves behind. He’s to protect the family, control the fallout, and never lose composure.

It’s a role he wears so well that most people mistake him for cold. And maybe he is.

As the eldest Blackstone brother, Jasper learned long ago that love is weakness, trust is dangerous, and vulnerability gets people destroyed. So he keeps his distance from everyone—including the woman who unexpectedly arrives at Blackstone Manor and immediately threatens the careful control he’s spent years perfecting.

As a world class journalist, Holly is inquisitive and defiant, and that makes her dangerous.

Worst of all, Jasper wants her.

What begins as irritation quickly becomes obsession. Because beneath her curious nature and guarded heart, Holly makes Jasper feel something he hasn’t allowed himself in a very long time:

Human.

Intrigued is a deeply emotional billionaire romance about forbidden attraction, family loyalty, dangerous secrets, and the powerful man who never planned to fall first. It’s the first book in The Forbidden Billionaire Trilogy in The Blackstones series by best-selling author Z.L. Arkadie.
