ELITE ROMANCE SERIES II
Violet Belle Villamor has it all. A promising career as a young military doctor and a privileged life as the youngest daughter of the country's most powerful pharmaceutical CEO. When her parents arrange a birthday celebration in the Philippines to fulfill one of her wishes, Violet believes everything is falling perfectly into place. But fate has other plans. Selected for military deployment to a war zone in the Middle East, she announces the news with pride on her birthday, only to face fierce opposition from her entire family.
Refusing to abandon her calling, Violet flees her gilded cage and disappears into the night. Her escape leads her to an unexpected sanctuary: the home of Professor Attorney Willow Cassandra Montemayor, a renowned law professor at Albany Law School whose reputation for icy composure precedes her.
What begins as temporary refuge transforms into something deeper. As Willow opens her home to Violet, the walls between them crumble. Friendship blooms into something neither woman anticipated. A love that feels as inevitable as it is forbidden. In Willow's care, Violet finds not just shelter, but understanding, passion, and a connection that makes her question everything she thought she wanted.
But when Violet uncovers the truth behind Willow's kindness, her world shatters. The love she believed was real, the tenderness she'd come to depend on. All of it was orchestrated. Bound by a mysterious contract known as the Purgatory Accord, Willow's affections were never freely given. They were purchased, prescribed, part of an agreement Violet never knew existed.
Now Violet must confront an impossible question: Can love born from obligation ever become real? Or is she trapped in a purgatory of her own making, where even the heart can be bought and sold?
