E. Oyiza
After a car accident leaves Elisa with amnesia, she wakes up to discover that her husband, Marcus, and their young son, Eli, have been visiting her in the hospital. But there's something terribly wrong. Marcus introduces her as a distant relative, while his former lover, Sophia, is presented as Eli's mother.
Before Elisa can make sense of the lies, Julian Thorne, Marcus's business rival, arrives and tells her the truth.
Then her memories come rushing back.
She remembers her marriage, the son she loves, and the life she gave up for a man who has now replaced her with another woman. But rather than confront Marcus, Elisa decides to let him believe his deception has worked. If he thinks she remembers nothing, she'll use that advantage to take back everything he thought he could steal from her.
With nowhere to turn, she leaves the hospital with Julian. What begins as an unlikely alliance soon becomes something neither of them expected. And when Marcus calls, demanding to know where his wife is, Elisa makes sure he understands that she isn't alone anymore.
As she fights to reclaim her career, her legal rights and her place in her son's life, her growing feelings for Julian complicate an already dangerous game. But Marcus isn't prepared to lose control of the woman he so casually discarded.
He wanted her out of his life. He may soon discover that losing her was his biggest mistake.
