Chasing Lincoln's Killer

She was never meant to want him. He was never meant to need her. But some shadows are too enticing to ignore… For as long as Isla Montgomery can remember, Liam Sinclair has been more than just her father's best friend—he's been a whispered name in the hallways, a powerful presence in their family conversations, and a haunting figure in her daydreams. Charismatic, cold, and irresistibly out of reach, Liam built an empire from the ashes of betrayal. And now, he's back—richer, harder, and more broken than ever. Isla is no longer the wide-eyed girl he once brushed aside. She’s grown, bold, and dangerously drawn to the man who was always forbidden. But when her father's past begins to unravel, Isla finds herself tangled in a web of secrets, lies, and a truth that could shatter everything. As her world crumbles and Liam’s enemies close in, Isla must decide: Is she chasing the man... or the shadow of who he used to be? Because loving Liam Sinclair could be her greatest rebellion—or her final downfall.

Hindi man totoo ang relasyon ni Dorothea kay Clarence, hindi niya matanggap ang nangyari sa pagitan niya at ng lalaking hindi niya kilala matapos magising sa tabi nito sa isang estrangherong motel na hindi niya maalala kung paano niya napuntahan. Pinaghalong sakit at pagkadismaya sa sarili ang naramdaman niya at hindi niya maatim na harapin ang lalaking nagbigay ng kalayaan niya kaya mas pinili niyang lumayo rito. In her pursuit of distance between herself and the man who she genuinely loved despite their unusual connection, she found herself bearing the fruit of that one blurry night with a complete stranger. Iniisip na isang malaking pagtataksil iyon sa lahat ng kabaitan ni Clarence sa kanya, mas pinili ni Dorothea sa itago ang katotohanan tungkol sa kanyang anak. Pero paano kung lingid sa kanyang kaalaman, na ang lalaking pilit niyang tinatakbuhan ay patuloy ring humahabol sa kanya? Paano kung ang kanyang bawat paglayo, ang katumbas ay ang lalong paglalapit ng kanilang mga landas? Ano ang gagawin ni Dorothea kung isang araw, makita niya ang lalaking pilit niyang iniiwasan sa kanyang harapan, at itanong ang mga bagay na pilit niyang itinatago? Magagawa ba niyang magsinungaling? O ipagpatuloy ang nasimulang pagtakbo sa totoo?

"Oops, I did it again. I played with your heart, got lost in the game.” I close my eyes; I am enjoying the sun on my face and the wind in my hair. The sound of my voice echoing across the fields. Then I open my eyes; I am scared out of my mind by someone standing over me. "Where did you come from?! You should not creep up on people!" "I can ask you the same thing, what the hell are you doing out here?" His eyes run over my body, and I can see amusement build in his smile.

********* “Did you really come all the way here to tell me you were with another woman you slept with and impregnated?” “What?” Travis is the one who speaks, his voice echoing his shock as he looks from me to Kian. Kian’s usual blank look remains as if he is unaffected by my words and the pain he has caused me. “Let’s not do this here, Leslie. You know I can’t just leave her.” I scoff. “I never stopped you. You know what? You should have never come here. You should have stayed with her since that is where your loyalties lie now and I am no longer in the picture.” Kian frowns, moving closer and intimidating me just a little with his height and muscular frame, “What does that mean? You are my wife.” “Ex-wife,” I say the words without even thinking. I didn’t think any of this through but I don’t care because my entire being seems to agree that this is what’s best for me, “I want a divorce, Kian.” His eyes grow wide, unable to contain the shock at my words and I am proud of myself that I finally got a reaction that isn’t anger or coldness from him. “Both the divorce papers and my resignation will find their way to you soon.” I add before he can get over his shock and I don’t wait for him to reply as I turn to an equally stunned Travis. “Take me home, Travis.”
