Nora Roberts Lost Bride Trilogy Book 2 Novels & Stories

Everyone in Gleaston knew how hopelessly in love Ariana Torrey was with Brian Lodge. She loved him to the extent of abandoning all of her pride and principles. On the day they were supposed to get married, Brian left Ariana behind and drove their bridal car to the airport to pick up Evelyn Granger, the person he truly loved, with just a word from the latter. The wedding Ariana had hoped for after waiting for at least three years turned into a nightmare that would scar her forever.

He leaned against the door, smiling wickedly as he played with the rope in his hands. "Matthew stole my bride. Taking his bride for a mating ceremony wouldn't be unreasonable, don't you think?" I raised an eyebrow and grabbed him by the collar. "I don't like the idea of being abducted. I'd rather go with you willingly than be kidnapped. You're ruthless, and I'm obedient. That makes us a perfect match." Upon hearing my response, Edwin froze, clearly taken aback. He played with the ring on his pinky, a smirk playing on his lips.

Faith and Mira led the bridal procession, their steps elegant and proud. “If not for you, I’d never have shown up,” Rosa muttered to Abel, clearly displeased. “Well, thanks for coming,” he replied dryly. “I still can’t believe he’s marrying her,” Ava whispered beside Max. “He chose her over you. Deal with it,” Max shot back coldly. “You son of a...” “Can we just enjoy the wedding, please?” Lucas groaned. “Whatever,” Ava muttered, folding her arms. As the music shifted to the Wedding March, Nora appeared, bouquet in hand. Though the room buzzed with guests and flashing cameras, all she saw was Noah.

assistant"> The drive home unfolded beneath a sky washed in amber and lavender, the late afternoon sun stretching long ribbons of gold across the highway. Nora kept both hands firmly wrapped around the steering wheel, but her thoughts refused to stay on the road ahead. The wedding venue grew smaller in the rearview mirror until it disappeared completely, yet she still carried it with her—the quiet garden, the scent of lavender drifting on the breeze, the confession hidden between unfinished sentences, and the look Celine had given her before they walked back into the world pretending nothing had happened.

Taking off my dirty clothes, I strode into the shower, allowing the water to wash away the pain I felt for the day. Watching my brother get married to the woman I was opportuned to have but rejected after realizing that she wasn't who I thought she was and Lenora accepting my rejection was on a whole different level for me. ________________________♡✿♡________________________ NORA'S POV It's been two weeks since my wedding with the Alpha of the Midnight Prowlers pack, and things have been going smoothly ever since, but I was concerned because after my wedding night I haven't seen Gavner.

Thea sneered, "Nora, you are truly a cunning rabbit. Cunning as a fox, Thorne took away one of your burrows before, but you managed to escape with your tail intact. Now you want to pull the same trick again, but I am not Thorne. There is no way I would allow you to have another chance to rise from the ashes." "You were very cruel." "Could you be heartless? For money, your hands were stained with so much blood." Nora's elegance and luxury could no longer be sustained, and she broke down, shouting, "I didn't plot to harm Robert just to take over your medical team. It was Robert, damn him, who forced me to return all the businesses to the Miller family. Why should I? Those were all the territor

“Yes, she worked as a barmaid in Frozen Crescent, the ice cave bar, and charmed my crown prince to fall for her. Now he chooses her to be his bride. My efforts and sacrifices are gone into veins.” “That’s my Axe. You know her whereabouts?” “She must be in the castle, sleeping with her newlywed husband.” Nora punched against the rock and the rock broke into pieces. “No, she can’t be. She won’t even do with a healthy conscience.” “What if she does with her weak memory?” It broke Karen into pieces after hearing the truth from Nora. Nora patted Karen’s shoulder. “Tell me how strong your love is; it may help bring her memory back.” Karen continued his lamentation, “On that night, I am a fool to k

AUTHOR’S POV A year later, A year had passed since Nora lost Leo, bringing her to this moment, seated in the dressing room, staring at herself in a wedding dress. Mrs. Williams, who had once been a wicked mother, now stood before her, offering jewels as tokens of acceptance and regret.

I read the first line and set it back down, I left the food untouched, I crossed to the bar instead. I poured myself a glass of whiskey, it burned less than it usually did. I carried the glass toward the window, outside, the sky beyond the grounds had started to turn gold. The fountain near the gardens reflected the last of the sunlight. I rested one hand against the glass. I knew Nora had spent five years in London. I knew she had returned with Beaumont under her control. I knew she had taken Andrade before I realized she was even bidding. I knew Alexander Ashton had met her when she was carrying twins.

Regardless of the consequences, what I have planned must be accomplished. As we approached the end of the road, it became increasingly narrow. It was already dark; this place is quite isolated. Looking at Nora, I saw her watching everything with scrutiny. I also saw a mixture of despair and resignation. The years she spent with me taught her that when I want something, I get it. But now more than ever, I will not let anything get in my way. I have a plan this time, and nothing will change my direction. From a distance, I was already able to recognize the facade of the home we would live in for some time. When Nora saw it, her eyebrows shot up in surprise. The house is beautiful, and it has e
