Mathilda Lancaster had one rule: stay in control. After being cast out by her family and publicly branded unstable, control is the only thing she has left. It means keeping her head down, earning her degree, and building a future no one can take away from her. A receptionist position at Sinclair Group is supposed to be the first step. Then she meets Maximilian Sinclair. As CEO of one of New York's most powerful companies, he is known for being ruthless, demanding, and impossible to impress. He has no patience for distractions, and Mathilda has no interest in becoming one. Until one mistake turns into another. And another. By the time two pink lines appear on a pregnancy test, staying in control is no longer an option. The tension between them was never supposed to mean anything; now Mathilda -Tilly- must accept that some rules are meant to be broken.

When the dark reality of her family's past starts to shatter through the intricate web of lies she's been living in, Aspen is forced to accept a devastating truth. In the name of love, monsters can arise from the hearts of men. • • • This is the sequel to Missing Pieces. It cannot be read as a stand-alone. Contains sensitive material (no cliches).
