Heartbreak Appointment

I’ve spent my career as a surgeon masterfully repairing hearts, but I never expected mine to be the one beyond saving. For five years, I was the perfect alliance wife to Julian Vance—the golden heir to a dangerous dynasty—only to discover that while I was secretly carrying his child, he was already celebrating another with the mistress he never truly left. He expected me to be the silent victim, the grieving wife, the pawn in his family’s game. He was wrong. I didn’t just leave him; I surgically removed him from my life, starting with a forged divorce and a one-way ticket to Paris. Now, as Julian realizes his mistakes in the wreckage of his empire, I’ve found a man in Damian Sterling who doesn’t just want an heir—he wants me. Julian is about to learn that the only thing more lethal than a Vance's shadow is a Thorne who has finally found her edge.
