Nora Roberts Lost Bride Trilogy Novels & Stories

“She came to the bridal shop. That was the last time I saw her. She had lost a lot of weight and was wearing a convenience store uniform. She stood at the entrance but didn’t come in. She said the wedding dress was beautiful and that I would look good in it.” Elena’s voice trembled as she continued, “She also said you have a weak stomach, and I should take care of you. She said you don’t like talking about your feelings, and when you’re upset, you keep everything to yourself. She told me to stay with you and talk to you, even if you got annoyed.

“Don’t delay Damien and Avery’s wedding any longer. That poor girl already lost a child because of you. If you have even a shred of conscience, sign the divorce papers and disappear.” Elena felt the room tilt for a moment. So that was it. They wanted her gone—but couldn’t defy the old man directly. They needed her to make the first move. A laugh, cold and bitter, escaped her lips. “You want me to be the one to suggest the divorce?” she asked softly. Just then, Avery walked in, her beauty radiant as ever, holding a small boy with rosy cheeks and bright eyes. Elena’s breath caught. The child’s smile reminded her painfully of her own baby—the one she lost before ever getting to hold. Her heart

I had hired Nora because she was unshakable under pressure, so seeing her like this instantly set off alarm bells in my mind. “What’s it?” I asked, surprised at how steady my voice sounded, even as dread began to stir in my chest. I’d worked tirelessly over the past three months to make sure this party was perfect. “The bride is missing,” she whispered, glancing over her shoulder to make sure no one could hear. I stared at her, feeling a cold wave of shock rippled through me. My heart skipped a beat, and my stomach twisted. “What do you mean, the bride is missing? This is her engagement party,” I hissed, keeping my voice low but sharp. Nora shook her head, her face pale as she looked back at

He shook his head, “It wouldn’t make you a weak spot. Even Sadie isn’t my weak spot. But you… I can’t lose you.” “So are you just going to let me go? Let me marry someone else.” Brad gripped my hand and squeezed. “No.” He deadpanned. “What are we going to do Brad?” I asked. *** The door threw open and Nora burst in. She looked stunning with her hair up and her professionally done make up. Her satin red dress with an open slit hugged all her curves. She looked more nervous than I did and I was the bride! “Your mother is here. She doesn’t look very happy.”

Inside the bedroom, Larisa closed the door and carried Gaby onto the bed. “You must be sleepy. I’m sorry, sweetheart. I promise we’ll return to that house.” Larisa laid Gaby down and held her until her daughter fell asleep. She closed her eyes and whispered, “I won’t lose you again, Roby. Once was enough.” Her mind drifted back to the past. Larisa remembered everything so clearly. When Roby decided to marry Natasya, Larisa’s world collapsed. She stood far from the wedding hall, staring at the bridal car decorated with white flowers. Her hands trembled. Her chest felt tight. Tears streamed down her face without stopping.

Twenty-three: Nora Connolly She hadn’t been trapped for very long. But with all of Mordred’s talk about trying to marry her off, she didn’t like the idea of being left alone. She didn’t know who she could trust anymore. What she did know was that Roman was her mate. The future Alpha. And powerful enough to keep anyone at bay that might try and hurt her. That was what Nora needed. She had always run whenever she was in danger before. But for the first time in her life, there was someone to keep her safe.

Crying so bitterly and being drowned in my tears, I did not notice that someone had stepped into my room. "Signora Jade..." "Elizabeth. What are you doing here?" I sat up and faced her, my eyes still very much teary. "Do not cry please" she ambled towards me and placed her hand on my shoulder. "My marriage is falling apart" I bemoaned. "It's falling apart all because of that selfish woman Valerie and her brother Damien. Why is she doing this to me? Why does she desire my husband so much?" I cried even harder. "I do not know what is going on but all I know is that you can't afford to loose this battle against this woman" Elizabeth urged.

Laughter mingled as loved ones took their seats, eagerly awaiting the ceremony. Merrick stood at the altar, dressed impeccably in a sleek suit, his eyes fixed on the entrance, where Nora would soon make her grand entrance. His breath caught as the doors swung open, revealing Nora in her stunning white wedding gown. The fabric cascaded down her figure, accentuating her beauty and radiance. She walked towards Merrick with confidence, her smile lighting up the room.

Sebastian came to Tera, trying to catch his wife's attention by pulling her chin, "Then you, why did you leave the party first? You left me and many guests! What kind of bride leaves her own wedding party?" "Nora needs rest. The doctor said, Nora is still in shock from what happened in the swimming pool. Moreover, your daughter fell on the ground. Her clothes were dirty, her hands and feet were injured. If you paid more attention to her than all the beautiful women at the party, you would know why we're home early!" Tera pushed Sebastian's hand away from her chin, then turned to look at Nora who was indifferent to Tera and Sebastian's conversation. The little girl was so engrossed in her wor

Robert explained, looking at me with a hint of disdain. I felt a surge of anger and hurt wash over me. How dare he insult my background and try to buy me off like some kind of commodity. "I'm sorry, but I won't accept any money to end my marriage. Alex and I love each other, and we'll work through any problems we have," I said firmly, standing up. Robert raised an eyebrow. "Very well. I'll relay the message to Mr. Grey Sr. However, I must warn you that he will not take kindly to your refusal," he said, getting up to leave.
