A Later-in-Life Billionaire Marriage-in-Crisis Romance of Betrayal, Divorce, Revenge, Grovel, and the Second Chance He Must Earn
He married me under a false name.
I fell for the poor man he pretended to be.
Then I learned my husband was a billionaire—and our marriage had given him control of an empire.
At forty-two, I thought I knew what my future would look like.
I was going to marry Declan Mercer, save my struggling architecture company, and build the life we had planned together.
Then I found him with another woman on the night of our engagement gala.
She was wearing his shirt.
She claimed she was carrying his baby.
And Declan admitted that he had never wanted only me. He wanted my company, my name, and the waterfront land my father left behind.
Broken and angry, I made one reckless choice.
I married Ian Price, the quiet construction consultant who stood beside me when everyone else walked away.
Ian had no mansion.
No private jet.
No powerful family name.
Or so I believed.
My new husband is really Gideon Mercer, Declan’s billionaire uncle and the secret ruler of a business empire.
He knew Declan was betraying me.
He knew my company was being used.
And he knew that marrying me would give him the power to take Declan down.
Gideon says his feelings were real.
But how can I trust a man who kissed me under one name and controlled my life under another?
I leave him.
I file for divorce.
And I promise myself that no Mercer man will ever use me again.
Then millions of dollars disappear, my name appears on false documents, and I am accused of a crime that could destroy my company and send me to prison.
The only man powerful enough to protect me is the husband who broke my trust.
But Gideon cannot buy his way back into my heart.
He must surrender his power.
Tell every truth.
Let me walk away.
And prove that the man I loved beneath the false name was real.
Because I may still love my billionaire ex-husband.
But this time, love will not be enough.
He must earn me.
