Two Hearts. One Marriage. Countless Secrets.
Lenora
I’ve spent twenty years hiding from the man who shattered my childhood. My twin brother and I escaped his gilded prison in Italy, built new lives in America, and I found John—the one person who makes me feel safe. He’s my best friend, my fiercest love, the man who still makes my breath catch with a single look. We built a beautiful life together… a life I would do anything to protect.
But safety is fragile, and mine has always been on borrowed time.
I still carry secrets I’ve never told him. I tell myself the lie protects him, but secrets have weight. The one I’m carrying is getting harder to hide… especially when the past I ran from begins closing in.
John
Lenora is my home, my heart—my reason for breathing.
She thinks I manage financial accounts and travel for business, but the truth is far darker. I work for an organization that rescues girls from the type of man who once hurt her.
I tell myself that keeping her in the dark keeps her safe. But when her past resurfaces and targets everything we love, the lies between us may be the most dangerous thing of all.
When a ruthless predator resurfaces, love isn’t enough—trust becomes their only chance at survival.
