His Heart longs for Another

Everyone," Evans said, his voice booming, "I want you to meet someone special. This is Bella, my partner." The tray slipped from my hands, crashing to the floor. Glass shattered, champagne soaking my shoes. I grabbed the bar, my legs giving out, as Bella's gaze locked on mine. Her eyes were cold, hostile, like I was a stranger she despised. My sister, alive, glaring at me with a hate I didn't understand. "Vivian!" Clara rushed over, grabbing my arm. "What's wrong?" I couldn't speak, my throat locked. Madeline's laugh rang out, sharp and mocking. "Such grace," she called, stepping closer. "Someone clean this up." Nate was at my side now, his voice urgent. "Vivian, talk to me. What's happening?" I stared at Bella, descending with Evans, her smile sharp as a blade. "She is my sister…" I whispered, my voice breaking. "She is supposed to be dead." Vivian Grants was once the beloved daughter of New York’s wealthiest family—until one tragic mistake shattered her world. When her sister drowned under her watch, her father’s scorn forced her into exile. For ten years, she lived like a shadow, too broken to return, too afraid to face her past. Then she met Evans Newton, the man who became her refuge but never her love. No matter how hard she tried to reach him, his heart belonged to someone else. And on the night she thought she would finally earn his affection, he brought home the one person she had spent a decade mourning. Her sister. Bella Grants was alive. And she wasn’t just back. She was here to reclaim everything. As the lies unravel, Vivian realizes her past was never what it seemed. The people she trusted are hiding dark secrets, and the truth about Bella’s disappearance is more terrifying than she ever imagined. But in a world where love is a game, betrayal is currency, and the dead don’t stay buried, Vivian has only one choice.

Substitute Wife For The Blind CEO

On the day of her wedding, Ivy Quinn vanishes, leaving behind only a note: "I’m sorry, I can't marry a blind man." To protect her son from heartbreak, Elizabeth Winters strikes a desperate deal—Ruby, Ivy’s identical twin, must take her sister’s place at the altar. Trapped by duty and family pressure, Ruby agrees, believing it will only last until Stefan’s eyesight is restored. But from the moment they marry, Stefan senses something is different about his "wife." The woman beside him is nothing like the shallow fiancée he once knew. She’s sharp, resilient, and understands his business in a way Ivy never did. Against all odds, he falls harder than ever for this new version of her. And Ruby? She never expected to fall in love with a man who was never meant to be hers. But just when she finds the courage to tell him the truth, Ivy returns, ready to reclaim the life she abandoned. When Stefan finally opens his eyes, will he see the woman who truly stood by him—or will he be too blind to recognize real love? ****Excerpt**** “By the way, did Ruby come to the wedding?” he asked, catching her off guard since she hadn't expected him to ask her that all of a sudden. Was he already suspecting that it was her and not Ivy? Ruby’s fingers froze on the door handle for just a fraction of a second. It was enough to set off alarms in Stefan's head. “I—uh…” She hesitated, but only briefly. “No. She had work. She couldn’t make it.” Was he suspecting a switch already? What must have set off the alarm in his head? Stefan hummed, tilting his head slightly. “Oh, I see. How is she, then? I hope she's coming to visit one of these days?” Her fingers tightened on the handle, though her voice remained steady. “Yeah. She would, the moment she is chanced and can come.” A slow smirk tugged at the corner of Stefan’s lips, though he kept his expression neutral. Interesting. Very interesting. His wife had just lied to him and he didn't know why. Even though he was blind, he'd find out why soon enough.
