Shattered Vows - Their Wedding Night Wasn’t the Beginning It Was the End

Lucian M. Crowe

Summary

On their wedding day, everything looks flawless. Vows exchanged, cheers rising, the night stretching ahead with promise. But under the soft lights and champagne glow, unease slips in.

She shines in her gown, certain she’s chosen the man who’ll steady her through every storm. He clings to devotion, hoping their marriage can blot out the shadows tied to his family name. Yet whispers move through the crowd, relatives murmur warnings, and someone lingers just beyond the edge of the celebration silent, watching.

What starts tender fractures fast. Secrets surface in quiet moments, words not meant for her ears break through, and a hidden letter points to a truth he’s never dared face. The deeper she digs, the more unstable the ground beneath them feels, until desire and dread blur together.

Every vow carries two sides: one spoken, one withheld. And silence can cut sharper than betrayal.

Dark and intimate, *Shattered Vows* draws readers into a marriage where every embrace hides a question, and every confession threatens to tear the bond apart.

When the past refuses to stay buried, how much truth can love endure?
