MY HUSBAND'S TRAP

She took her own life for a deception known as love. For ten years, Lottie Rice was the dutiful wife of Geoffrey Smith and quiet servant to the Smith family. She endured all kinds of verbal abuse and physical punishment under the pretense of discipline because she knew true love meant being treated badly. Upon Geoffrey’s arrest for a hit-and-run killing of an innocent woman, Lottie fulfilled her duties of love and took the fall for a crime she never committed. She thought she was saving him. She was the sacrifice all along. The frame-up was never an accident. It was his plan from day one and she was the pawn built to take the fall. The wife who died for him was never more than a pearl he meant to crush. What none of them knew: Lottie wasn't the nobody the Smiths rescued from nothing. She was the missing heir to the Rice empire, hiding a fortune and a bloodline for a love that was never real. Now the truth is surfacing and the family that spat on her is on its knees. The husband who sold her out wants her back, desperate and in love with the woman he destroyed. But Lottie isn't interested in being loved. She's interested in being feared. What stands in her way: Eric Reese, vicious heir to the conglomerate, tracking down the woman who he thinks murdered his sister. He doesn’t know that she is innocent. She doesn’t know that he could be her only hope. Two blades. Two targets. Neither knows what’s in store for them.
