TO LOVE HIM AGAIN:THE BILLIONAIRE'S SECRET CHILD
“She needed closure, but it turned out to be the worst decision she ever took... or was it? ~~~ Sera Lane has spent years building a quiet life, far from New York, far from Adrian Cross-the boy who once held her heart, and the secret she's carried ever since. But when news of his engagement reaches her, she convinces herself one trip back won't hurt. One night to finally let go. Instead, she walks straight into the storm she's been running from: Adrian isn't the same boy she left behind. He's colder, sharper, and when he learns the truth, he refuses to let her slip away again. Suddenly, Sera is pulled back into his world of wealth and betrayal, standing face to face not only with Adrian but also Ivy Shawn-her former best friend and the woman about to marry him. Adrian wants answers. He wants their son. And he wants her. But with old wounds tearing open and dangerous truths surfacing, Sera has to wonder: did she destroy their love forever... or could the child they share be the second chance neither of them expected? When everything comes crashing down, only one question remains: Can love survive the lies that broke them once before?”
