Stephanie Morgan will not let anything derail her career as a top international lawyer. So when she comes face-to-face with the one man she hoped she'd never see again, Stephanie has no choice but to double down on her lies... Because if he finds out the truth, nothing will ever be the same again.

                                                                      *****

Six years after a weekend fling with her law school nemesis, Michael Wellington, Stephanie is hiding a secret that could change the lives of many. The last thing she wants is for Mike to find out. Groomed for success from the day he was born, with a powerful family whose wealth and influence go back generations, Mike is everything she's not. His charming arrogance makes him the last person she wants to deal with, even if she can't deny the attraction between them. So, as Stephanie takes the world by storm as one of the most successful international lawyers, she keeps up the lies and the facade that she started with her twin sister all those years ago... But what will she do when the house of cards comes crashing down?
