Sinossi

Lewis Haystoun is a man of intellect and privilege, yet he is haunted by a crippling hesitation that prevents him from seizing his true destiny. When a geopolitical crisis emerges on the Indian frontier, he is forced to confront his internal demons to save his country from a Russian invasion. The narrative masterfully weaves together high-society romance and grueling mountain warfare. Haystoun’s journey is a profound exploration of character, courage, and the heavy price of inaction.

    When art curator Madeline Carter steps into a Manhattan gallery, her life changes forever. Staring back at her is a portrait that shouldn’t exist—a painting of a woman who looks exactly like her. That woman was Amelia Knight, the late fiancée of billionaire Ethan Blackwood, whose tragic death left behind unanswered questions and a legacy of grief. 
    What begins as a chance encounter turns into a web of secrets, lies, and forbidden emotions. Ethan, haunted by Amelia’s memory, finds himself drawn to Madeline in ways that blur the line between past and present. But as Madeline uncovers Amelia’s hidden journal, she realizes Amelia’s death was no accident—it was murder. 
    Each revelation pulls Madeline deeper into Ethan’s world, where betrayal lurks in boardrooms and shadows follow her every step. Rachel Hayes, Ethan’s loyal assistant, harbors dangerous secrets of her own, while Daniel Pierce, his business partner, has everything to gain from silencing the truth. 
    Torn between her growing feelings for Ethan and the deadly risks of unveiling the past, Madeline must decide: walk away and stay safe, or fight for the truth and risk becoming the next victim. 
    In a story of love born from ashes, Billionaire’s Forbidden Desire is a gripping tale of forbidden attraction, betrayal, and courage—where the heart’s greatest risk may also be its greatest reward.

    **Previously published as True of Heart Love lessons have never gone so awry Miss Ruth Hawthorn helps support her fatherless family the only way she can: doling out love advice in a local newspaper column under an assumed name, The Swan. When she receives a lucrative request for an in-person consultation from someone signed O, her brother persuades her to go to London with him, teaching him what he needs to know in order to survive the short appointment. But when O moves up the time of the rendez-vous and Ruth's brother is nowhere to be found, she is forced to take matters into her own hands. Philip Trent, Lord Oxley, knows precisely which woman will best fill his late mother's shoes as the viscountess—now all he needs is a little help winning her over, swarmed as she is by suitors. Ashamed of his ineptitude with women but determined to succeed, Philip secretly enlists help. The youthful, bespectacled Swan seems like the last person capable of providing such help, but Philip finds in the young man both a friend and a confidant, with a surprising understanding of love. Philip's choice of woman is proving more difficult than anticipated, though, and Ruth's ongoing disguise and frequent meetings with him are taxing her conscience—and her heart. With more secrets than Ruth can manage and a heart long since lost to her most important client, she faces the threat of discovery and ruin—a prospect somehow eclipsed by the heartbreak she will face when those secrets are inevitably discovered by the man she loves.
