Sometimes you just might have to die to live again. ***** When art historian Reine Baldwin meets Gabe Moran, a charming journalist, she has no idea their blossoming love will shatter her comfortable life. But a series of clues lead Reine to discover that she's not alone in knowing that she was born centuries ago and-worse yet-there are many things she apparently doesn't even remember. Reine has to face a forgotten past and a forgotten ex-husband (the handsome billionaire Max Baldovini), who-like her-is immortal and cannot truly die. Should she trade her ordinary life with Gabe for the love of Max, a man who's worshipped her for half a millennium? The choice should be easy, until Reine starts to remember things that Max is desperate to make her forget. [[word count: 100,000-150,000 words]]

Book two of the What Nobody Knew series (A Pride and Prejudice Retelling). Black dress shoes stepped into my line of sight. My eyes travelled from his shoes, up the legs of his trousers, past his button-down shirt until I was met with his cold blue eyes. "Oh it's you, I'm not done yet," I stated simply, focusing on the files in front of me again. It was late and all formalities flew out of the door along with the other employees as they clocked out for the day. There was a pause. "Seems like this is still going to take you a while. You better let George know you won't be meeting him tonight." He said coolly. His words stopped my hand mid-air as I was reaching for another file. Was he bloody serious? Was this whole thing about that voice mail from George! ... Elizabeth Bennet and William Knight have decided to be mature adults, by pushing all their feelings aside and continuing a strictly professional working relationship with one another. But will they be able to ignore everything that happened between them? And what will happen if George Wickham makes a reappearance to win over Elizabeth? Will she listen to William's warnings about George? And will William be able to keep his distance from Elizabeth the second time around? This book is not standalone, so make sure to read What Nobody Knew first. The first book was quite mellow in the romance department, but this second instalment is going to bring a bit more steaminess. May contain some mature themes.

"So, let me get this straight. You stomped all over his paperwork?" She started. "Not intentionally, but yes," I confirmed it. "Threw a drink in his face?" She added. "Expensive red wine." I described. "Rammed into his car with yours deliberately?" she counted on her third finger. "Um...I'm not proud of that one," I said cringing. "And called him offensive names?" She ended the list and I winced. "Twice." I specified. "And you're still alive?" She blinked, looking genuinely surprised. "Geez, don't be dramatic or anything..." I frowned at her hyperbolic statement. "Maybe he's keeping you around to get revenge." She suggested. Possible. I wouldn't put it past him. "I didn't know alright!" I exclaimed. "Let's hope that excuse is acceptable.." She was merely amused. "Working with my new boss is going to be a piece of work." ** Synopsis: When the CEO of Signature Heights: Jensen Black, and a stubborn employee: Alexandra Brook, clash, it's a battle of wits & a war of perseverance.
