Sie war dem Namen nach seine Frau, zu Lebzeiten sein Schatten, und seine Erinnerung war zu spät, um sie zu retten. Isabelle Rousseau liebte jahrelang Étienne Beaumont, den Mann, der ein Imperium aufbaute, während sie ihre Zwillingstöchter allein großzog. Er jagte dem Erfolg hinterher. Sie jagte seinem Herzen hinterher. Und als sie ihn dabei ertappte, wie er ihren Jahrestag mit einer anderen Frau feierte, zerbrach nichts in ihr, es hörte auf zu schlagen. Sie geht. Sie nimmt ihren Namen wieder an. Sie baut ihre Welt neu auf. Doch Geheimnisse kommen ans Licht. Die Zwillinge sind nicht seine. Eine Verschwörung bedroht alles. Und eine tödliche Diagnose lässt die Zeit gegen sie beide kämpfen. Kann der Mann, der einst ihr Herz gebrochen hat, es heilen? Oder kommt die Liebe zu spät, um noch etwas zu bewirken? Manche Liebesgeschichten enden mit „Ja, ich will.“ Manche enden mit „Ich vergebe dir.“ Aber die seltensten enden mit „Ich entscheide mich, wieder zu leben.“

“You're a long way from safe, Miss Allard,” he whispers, his fingers tracing the strap of my bra until I shiver. "If you want to turn around, I’d suggest you do so now.” I stare up at him, watching as his dilated grey eyes dip to my cleavage. “Where will I go, Mr. Sinclair?” I ask, pulling him closer until our lips are inches apart. “Where can I go that you won’t find me?” **** 24 year old Ava Jade Allard has a few problems, but like most issues, there’s nothing a little money can't fix. So when Ava attends an art show to sell a few of her paintings to some of the richest, high-society members of New York, she’s sure she can kill two birds with one very rich stone. In and out, just like she hoped. But New York seems set on eating Ava whole, and as one mess leads to another, she finds herself in the arms of Billionaire Leonel Sinclair, a ruthless CEO who is still dealing with the consequences of a scandal he was entangled in 4 years ago. Now more desperate than when she started, Ava reluctantly turns to this stone-cold, terrifying, but somehow insanely hot Billionaire to help her set right what was wronged 4 years ago, while somehow doing the same for him, and with one contract marriage, Ava signs away her single status, anonymity and possibly her soul. Will this contract fix the manytraumatic wrongs of her past, or will Ava crumble under the weight of her grey-eyed, stoic CEO, whom she seems less and less able to keep her body and heart away from with each passing day? What happens when Ava agrees to these reckless vows and emerges as the Billionaire’s Bride?
