Book three of the Maximilian series "... that's what your father would have wanted," her mother's words repeated in her head. Despite her success in her career, she longed for someone to share in her joys and sorrows. There were days when she just wanted to talk to someone, but she was too ashamed to admit that. After her father's death, she only cared about work and her career. She had no interest in any kind of relationship with anyone related to Adam. To her, men were selfish jerks who would stop at nothing to see her fail, and she wasn't up for that. Read how the suspense unfolds as she falls in love with a rich man who disguises himself as a bartender to find love. Will she be ready to face her feelings or run away from them as usual?

Bazyli stood nervously at the door, taking a deep breath before knocking. When Aly opened it, her eyes searching, he asked, "Can I come in?" Aly hesitated, her emotions a whirlwind of curiosity and hurt. Finally, she stepped aside, letting him in. "Sure, come in," she said, leading him to the living room. "Have a seat; do you care for anything?" she asked, trying to maintain some semblance of normalcy."No, I just need to talk to you," Bazyli responded, his voice shaky. Aly nodded, sitting across from him, giving him the space to speak."I'm sorry I didn't tell you the truth about me from the beginning. I wanted a break from my past, the wild and noisy bachelor life. I wanted a normal, quiet life, and I got so caught up in the reality and naturalness of our relationship that I didn't know how to tell you the truth," he explained, his eyes filled with regret.Aly looked at him, feeling a mix of hurt and understanding. "You should've told me, Bazy. I would've supported you either way, b

“ Of course I do, Jaxon! I am your sister, and there’s no way I’m going to let her ruin your life again.” Gia yelled over the phone.“No, you don’t! Besides, all she did was check up on me to know how I’ve been doing—nothing harmful as y’all have been making it up to be,” he calmly replied.“ Jax, Brynn has an ulterior motive. She always has and always will. Just ignore her and focus on your relationship with Yara. If you don’t want her anymore, please let her know so she can move on.” Gia advised.“ Wait, is that what you all think? That, I don’t want Yara anymore?” he asked. “ Yes, that’s what she thinks; that’s what everyone thinks!”“ No, no, y’all thought wrong! Yara’s the best thing that has ever happened to me. She helped me get through the worst moments of my life. She’s everything and more. I can’t do without her, Gia,” he confessed.“ Then make her understand that before it’s too late. Stop entertaining Brynn. She has a man, let her discuss whatever she has to say with him

“ Did you say you’re dating Shane?” Gia was surprised on the call. Shane was a good guy. He is handsome, a good giver, caring, understanding, and supportive. But she never thought those two would get together. Yes, they were close, but it didn’t look like they would tour that route.“ Yeah,” Ayanda repeated on the other side of the phone. She didn’t know how Gia would react to her and her old stylist dating; that’s why she decided to keep it to herself for a while before telling her.“ I’m happy for you, Ayanda, why didn’t you tell me earlier? Wait, did you think I'd be against it or feel awkward about it? Shane and I are good friends, nothing else. All those flirts were harmless. I knew he liked someone back then, but I didn’t know that person was you,” Gia said, getting her pie out of the oven.“ I don’t know why I didn’t mention it to you, but I’m sorry. I should have said something earlier.” “ It’s alright. So, when did you start dating? “ Two months ago,” she confessed, scratch

"Thank you for making me meet the family, I really appreciate it," Bazyli said to Alyona as they entered the house. "Don't mention it, Baz. It's about time you met them anyway. They've been wanting to meet you, especially Zeke," she smiled at him warmly. "Zeke seems like a great guy. He really cares about you, Aly. It's nice to have a good friend like that in your corner," Bazyli complimented. As they walked further into the home, Alyona headed toward the kitchen area. "Let me grab us a bottle of wine and some glasses ," she said. "Sounds good," replied Bazyli. "So how do you and Zeke know each other?" he asked, curious to learn more about Alyona's childhood friend. "Zeke and I go way back. He's been my friend since we were kids. He was always there for me during the tough times, and he's still here for me now. I don't know what I'd do without him, honestly," she smiled fondly at the memory. "He must be a really loyal friend. It's nice that you two have known each other for

Xara stood before the gathered guests with a smile, though inside she felt a storm of emotions she couldn't name. "Thank you all for coming," she began. Her late husband would have been pleased to see so many friends and family there to honor his memory. She took in the familiar faces, drawing comfort from seeing her children mingling in the crowd. Over the years, her husband had built strong bonds with many in attendance. Through him, they had become like extended family. "The relationships he formed brought you close to our family as well. For that, and for your constant support, love, and care since his passing, I am deeply grateful." Xara paused for a moment to compose herself. "The occasional check-ins, donations, and gifts have meant so much to me and the children during this difficult time. We appreciate your friendship and generosity more than I can say." Her gaze lingered on Elon as she continued. "To those who took him under your wing to teach him about managing his fathe

"When are we leaving for home?" Gia asked her brother over the phone. "I was thinking tomorrow. His death anniversary is in two days, so leaving tomorrow will be ideal," Jax replied. "Great, great. And do we meet at my end or yours? My school is closer, so it will be better if we meet here," Gia said. "Of course, Gia. I'll be coming to your end later in the day after I submit and present an article," he agreed, packing his lecture bag. "Alrighty, big bro. Wait, Yara's coming along, right?" She asked, wanting to be sure so she would know how to take care of their sleeping arrangements. "Yes, she mentioned she would be coming to your end with Ayanda today," Jax said. "Okay, cool. All the best with your article presentation," Gia replied. Jax finished packing and got ready to head to the university to present his article. He was looking forward to wrapping things up. He was looking forward to spending time with his family and honoring the memory of their late father. Presenting

Alyona had a lot of errands to run. Valentine’s Day and its hoopla were over, and she was back to reality. She had to plan her father’s 5-year death anniversary in two weeks, and she was already overwhelmed with the stress. The venue and food were covered. It was going to be held at her father’s house, and the maids were going to handle the food. Next on the list was decor. She needed an event planner to help her with the decorations for the event. She had been going through her contact list, yet she wasn’t getting any leads. “Gale, have you found someone yet?” she asked her secretary without lifting her head up. “Yes, I have.” “Did you say you have?” She turned to face her, hoping for a positive answer from her. She’d been on this for the past few hours, and all she needed was to find a person who could do good decor. “Yes. I can handle the decoration. It’s actually my side gig,” Gale mentioned. Aly knew Gale knew someone who did decorations, but she couldn’t put her finger on

Happy Valentine's Day!” her manager, videographer, and photographer yelled as they finished with the shoot.“T-thank you.” she managed to say. Her eyes searched the room for Kaye, as she had come to the shoot with him, but he was nowhere to be found. She wondered where he could have gone; they had been together just a few hours ago.“Behind you,” her manager said with a smile. She turned to see Kaye standing there, holding a gorgeous bouquet of flowers.“Happy Valentine's Day, babe,” he said, smiling warmly at her. She pulled him in for a tight hug, overcome with joy at the surprise. How had he managed to slip away without her noticing?As if reading her mind, Kaye said, “I know you're wondering how I was able to pull everything off.” He chuckled. “Well, yeah,” she replied with a laugh, still curious about his plan.“I’m afraid I can’t give away all my secrets!” he teased, making her pout playfully. “If I tell you, it takes the fun out of it.”“I can't get mad at you at this moment.”

"Bad time or good time?" Alyona asked as soon as Zeke answered his phone. "By that, do you mean 'are we in the middle of f**king or not'?" he replied with his typical blunt humor. "Oh my goodness! You never change, do you?" Aly asked, giving him an exaggerated eye roll. "If looks could kill, you'd be six feet under." "Alright, alright. What's up?" Zeke said deciding on a subject change was in order. "It's been ages since I last heard from you." "Nah, uh, it's been ages since I last heard from you!" she teased. "You've been on your honeymoon for close to a month now." "Whatever, Aly. What's new with you?" "Well, Bazyli and I are official now," she told him. "Finally!" Zeke exclaimed. "You're finally off the market. I'm really happy for you, Aly. Under that tough exterior, I know you wanted someone to call your own. I hope Bazyli is the perfect choice and that you're both very happy."Thank you , Zeke. We’re taking things slow for now,” she added.“ I’m still happy for you. You d
