When Roses Die

For eight years, Evelyn Caldwell was the ghost in the machine, rebuilding a shattered empire from the ashes of exile and poverty, sacrificing her health and her heart for the man she loved. She thought she had finally secured their legacy when she discovered she was pregnant with twins, but the gilded life she built was a house of cards. Behind the boardroom doors and the walls of their Woodside estate, Julian Caldwell has been harboring a dark double life with a mistress who already cost Evelyn one child—and she’s just returned to finish the job. As Evelyn feels the familiar, terrifying bloom of pain and realizes she’s been shoved again, she faces a brutal choice. The divorce papers are signed, the secrets are out, and the Caldwell empire is bleeding out alongside her. She saved them once, but as the hospital doors swing open and the vultures circle, the world is about to learn that a woman with nothing left to lose is the most dangerous enemy of all. Does she walk away with her life, or does she stay to watch the kingdom burn?
