When love is all you have left to lose... how do you let it go?
I should've known better than to fall for Shane Montgomery.
He's rich, revered, and bound to a legacy that was never meant to include a girl like me. A girl born of shadows, shaped by secrets, and marked by a past that's forever tainted me. But Shane didn't care. With that cocky smile and relentless charm, he slipped past every wall I built and made promises I was desperate to believe.
We said we'd hold on. That no matter how far apart life-or our families-pulled us, we'd always find our way back to each other.
But forever is a fragile thing in a world ruled by power and privilege. A world built on lies and secrets, by people who would rather see us shattered than together and happy.
Now everything we had is teetering on the edge of ruin-our love, our dreams, and something even more precious... something we never imagined we'd lose.
They warned us we wouldn't last. And maybe they were right.
Because the deeper the betrayal, the harder the truth cuts.
Not all promises are meant to be kept. And love, no matter how true, isn't always enough.
In this gripping second installment of the Twisted Path Series, loyalty is tested, love is torn at the seams, and two broken souls must decide if holding on is worth the pain.
He was born to rule. She was forged in fire. But falling in love might be their undoing.
I know how to survive. I've been doing it since the day my mother taught me to hide in closets and wait for the monsters to pass.
Trusting people? Loving them? That's how you get broken.
So when Shane Montgomery-Mr. Golden Boy with his perfect smile and world of privilege-offered to help me, I didn't believe him. Why would someone like him care about someone like me? I'm barely holding my life together-working double shifts, sleeping too little, chasing a future no one thinks I deserve.
But Shane is relentless. Not just with tutoring or grades, but with me. With seeing me. Touching the parts of me I've kept buried because needing someone is dangerous. And wanting him? That's a cliff I can't afford to fall from.
Still... I'm slipping.
Because when he looks at me like I'm his everything-like I'm the only thing he needs, like our love is fated, written into the very fabric of the universe-I almost believe him.
And if I allow myself to fall-really fall-it won't just be into his arms.
It'll be straight into the wreckage of everything I've fought so hard to survive.
In the first installment of the Twisted Path Series, opposites collide, secrets unravel, and two star-crossed lovers cling to each other in a world determined to tear them apart.
As Sutherland's new king, Emory Davercher faces countless challenges, but nothing as excruciating and frustrating as his mysterious, eccentric betrothed.
***
When King Emory of Sutherland receives news that his betrothed is on her way to Sutherland, he sends her away before even laying eyes on the woman he has no intention of marrying. Months later, after a narrow escape from an assassination, he flees to his childhood home where he discovers a massive problem. Due to an unfortunate mishap, his betrothed has not left Sutherland. She's been in his secret estate all along.
Grand Princess Florence Paulet of Gavaria and her cousin, Lucy, thinks her arrival in Sutherland will be easy. She doesn't expect that her betrothed, King Emory of Sutherland, will send her straight to an empty estate on an island where they fend for themselves for months. And when he finally shows up, he has the audacity to fool her by introducing himself as someone else. After having killed dozens of chickens with her bare hands to stay alive, and with lying as her ultimate weapon for survival since she left Gavaria, what else can an annoyed, blithe, and audacious Florence do? Of course, she has to return the favor and make him twice the fool.
He thinks he's fooling her, and she finds fun knowing it's the other way around. As the harsh winter traps them in the estate, lies, little accidents, and undeniable attraction draw them together stronger than the snowstorm.
But not as much as Florence's true reasons for leaving Gavaria, which are also making their way to Sutherland.
When Mila Connelly found a rare and beautiful Viking sword, she never expected to discover the handsome and mysterious Ulrik Westergaard along with it.

Mila soon finds herself in the midst of a world she never knew existed, with unexpected twists and turns around every corner. But danger lurks in the shadows of this new realm, and the unsuspecting couple isn't as safe as they believe. Will their newfound love be enough to protect them from the dangers that await them?
