Elias Sterling fought for his seat at Boston's table.
Now a rival developer intends to prove the city should never have given it to him.
Harbour Point is supposed to be the project that changes everything for Sterling Holdings.
A massive waterfront development. A new tier of institutional investment. The clearest proof yet that Elias is no longer the outsider asking Boston's old-money establishment for permission to belong.
Then Nicholas Ridgeway files an objection.
Traffic concerns.
Waterfront access.
Community opposition.
Every argument looks legitimate.
None of them tells the whole truth.
Ridgeway wanted Harbour Point for himself, and losing the site has turned a professional rivalry into something far more calculated.
Cassandra Prescott knows what carefully constructed documents look like.
She also knows what they look like when someone begins with the conclusion and searches backward for evidence.
When she digs into Harbour Point's history, she discovers contradictions in Ridgeway's case, relationships inside the planning authority and a supposed community organisation whose independence may exist only on paper.
But the deeper Cassandra goes, the more personal the record becomes.
Because the Prescott family name has its own forgotten connection to Harbour Point.
One her father has quietly carried for decades.
For most of her life, Cassandra has treated that name as something she must earn rather than inherit.
Now she must decide whether its history is a burden, a privilege or the foundation she was always meant to build from.
While Cassandra turns records into evidence, Elias prepares for the fight that could determine the future of Sterling Holdings.
A planning hearing.
A rival with institutional connections.
Forty million dollar decisions.
A development large enough to change his place in Boston permanently.
And beside him, the woman who has never needed to be protected from the difficult truth.
She needs the truth placed in front of her.
Because this time the question is bigger than whether Elias deserves a seat at someone else's table.
It is whether he has finally built one powerful enough to become his own.
And while their professional worlds rise to a new level, the private future they have been building is ready for its final step.
Not because the fight is over.
Because Cassandra and Elias have learned that commitment is not a reward waiting at the end of the difficult part.
It is choosing the same person while the difficult part is still happening.
His Table is Book Three and the conclusion of The Dark Horse, a contemporary old money versus new money romance featuring an established power couple, a self-made wealthy investor, an independent financial analyst heroine, rival developers, Boston high society, institutional politics, professional ambition, family legacy, an engagement, earned trust and a complete romantic HEA built through everything Cassandra and Elias have chosen together.
