Books like Sweet Revenge by Nora Roberts
Princess Adrianne presents the picture of a graceful, philanthropic socialite, dazzled by glamorous galas and charitable initiatives. Yet beneath the glitter lies a decade‑long obsession with revenge: to reclaim the priceless jewel—the sun and moon—sacrifices her mother, legendary actress Phoebe Spring, and her father, the cruel Sheikh Abdu Rahman. When Adrianne sets her sights on stealing the sapphire in order to punish her father, she encounters a enigmatic man who seems to know her motives and has his own hidden agenda for getting close to the princess. A tense tale of love, crime, and the complexities of vendetta unfolds as their fates intertwine.
Adrianne’s orphans past shadows her present, and this intricate plot explores the lengths one will go to for justice—and the personal costs of that quest.
