Sinopse

‘Rescuing Richard’ is a breathless quest that sweeps the reader from the blood-soaked battlefields of Zululand to the corridors of power in Regency London. Richard is astonished when Shaka appoints him to his inner council, where he vies for influence with his friend, Napoleon Bonaparte. Drawn to a feisty, intelligent young Zulu woman, Richard wrestles with his conscience while confronting betrayal and colonial adventurers exploiting the land he is sworn to protect. Having helped equip the Zulu army with artillery, he is sent as ambassador to the court of King George, where he defends Zulu interests while trying to help an old acquaintance escape an abusive relationship.

Because the fire between us threatens to blaze through every defense I've ever built. And in my line of work, letting your guard down is how you get killed.But I'm learning the truth about fire . . .

    In the glamorous year of 2026, where luxury masks secrets and wealth hides scars, fate pulls two broken souls into an unexpected collision. 
    Madeline Carter, a struggling event planner drowning in debt, never imagines her life will intertwine with Ethan Blackwood—a billionaire known for his ruthless empire and icy demeanor. Their meeting begins with an accident, a spilled cup of coffee, but spirals into a connection that neither of them can explain—or resist. 
    Haunted by the shadow of Amelia, his late fiancée who died under mysterious circumstances, Ethan is both captivated and unsettled by Madeline’s uncanny resemblance to her. What begins as a professional arrangement soon entangles Madeline in Ethan’s world of luxury resorts, hidden gardens, and dangerous enemies. Every step forward reveals another layer of betrayal, secrecy, and threat. 
    Anonymous notes warn her to leave. Ethan’s enigmatic rival, Daniel Reed, insists she is reliving Amelia’s fate. And Rachel Monroe, Ethan’s loyal assistant, hides a dangerous obsession that could shatter them all. 
    As the truth unravels, Madeline is forced to question: Is Ethan her salvation—or her greatest risk? In a world where love feels like a trap and trust can cost a life, she must decide whether to walk away or fight for the accidental love that could heal them both. 
    The Billionaire’s Accidental Love is a heart-wrenching, suspense-laced romance about resilience, betrayal, and the courage to embrace love when fate seems determined to keep it out of reach.
