Blurb Born the second twin, Fae was always the shadow-the quiet teacher, the caretaker,,the one who stayed in the shadows and let her siblings shine . When her sister became Luna to a powerful Alpha, she recognised his widowed brother, Blaidd as her own. But he was a man still bound to the memory of his dead mate. For eight long years, she raised his children, kept his home, and did her best to make him see her. But when she discovers the rune carved into his flesh-a witch's mark ensuring she could never bear his child-the truth shatters the last illusion of love. In a public hearing before her Alpha, she asks for what no mated wolf ever has: the right to live her own life. Her courage ripples through the pack, exposing the cracks in every tradition meant to keep her bound. And as she steps beyond her mate's shadow toward a distant land and a craft that calls to her soul, she begins to awaken to the woman she was always meant to be - one carved not from obedience, but from fire, freedom, and forgotten dreams.

Two years after her world shattered, Alyssa Martins has finally found peace in the city that never sleeps. New York is her clean slate , a place where no one calls her the wife of Isaiah Martins, and where her daughter, Ray, is free to grow up away from flashing cameras and cruel headlines. Broadway became Alyssa's quiet redemption. Her nights are filled with rehearsals, small performances, and lullabies for the little girl who reminds her too much of the man she is trying to forget. But then, there's Jordan Campbell the celebrated Hollywood producer and now a Broadway visionary. He's charming, grounded, and everything Alyssa swore she would never let herself want again. He's been her anchor, her friend, and lately... something more. Yet Jordan carries secrets of his own one that could destroy the fragile life Alyssa has built. And when the past she buried in Los Angeles comes knocking again, everything she thought she escaped threatens to crumble. In a city built on dreams and second chances, Alyssa will have to decide what's worth forgiving... and what's worth letting go. Because some symphonies aren't meant to be finished - and some lies never stop echoing.

Ten years ago, Alyssa Martin believed love was enough. She traded in her own spotlight for her husband's, becoming the quiet force behind Hollywood's golden boy Isaiah Martins, the man the world calls "Zay." To the public, their marriage is flawless red carpet smiles, luxury dinners, magazine covers that worship their "unbreakable bond." But behind the veil of perfection lies the truth: years of heartbreak, failed pregnancies, and a growing silence between them. As Isaiah's fame skyrockets, so does the pressure. His new co-star is dazzling, his team whispers about PR chemistry, and his hunger for power begins to consume him. Fame was supposed to be his salvation but it's becoming his downfall. And Alyssa? She's starting to realize that love isn't supposed to hurt this much. That sometimes, the greatest betrayal isn't another woman it's losing yourself while trying to hold someone else together. A Veil of Lies is a story about fame, love, and the price of silence a haunting portrait of a woman breaking under the weight of her own devotion. Beneath the glamour lies a battle with identity, self-worth, and mental scars that no one sees until it's far too late.

But success comes with shadows. And sometimes, the greatest danger doesn't come from the outside but from within. When a new face enters his company-brilliant, bold, and unlike anyone he's ever met Nicholas's carefully controlled life begins to crack. What starts as curiosity turns into obsession. What feels harmless becomes dangerous. He tells himself he's not that kind of man. But temptation has a voice that sounds like reason until it's too late to turn back. Now, Nicholas must face the price of his own desires. Because in the world he built, love is fragile, loyalty is fleeting, and one mistake can destroy everything. "I had everything. Then I wanted more."

Everyone thought my marriage was flawless. A powerful husband. Wealth. Privacy. Control. What they didn't know was that loyalty was the one thing he couldn't buy. I discovered his affair the night I realized love had made me obedient, not safe. He called it a mistake. I called it betrayal. Now I'm done being the faithful wife in a story written by a cheating man. This is not a forgiveness story. This is what happens after loyalty breaks.

He cups my face, his thumb brushing my cheek. "Come on. You know you're the only one for me." He kisses my forehead. What would you do if you discovered that your husband of eighteen years is having an affair? No... don't answer yet. 𝘛𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘬. Eighteen years. Not eighteen days. A history. A family. There's a long road between suspicion, the footprints left in the sand, and the devastating truth that the life you knew is already over. I saw it coming. I felt it in my bones. Late nights at work. Sleeping at the office. The distance... the way his eyes could no longer hold mine. Lipstick stains where they didn't belong. Unfamiliar scents clinging to a man who should only ever smell like him and me. 𝘏𝘪𝘮 & 𝘮𝘦. But when a third person enters your marriage... there's nothing left to save. 𝗙𝗿𝗮𝗰𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲𝗱: 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘊𝘩𝘰𝘪𝘤𝘦𝘴 𝘏𝘦 𝘔𝘢𝘥𝘦 is the first book in a trilogy that follows Cecily's journey.
