When a dark secret is unlocked, Ebony Williams turns against her absurdly rich father, refusing to listen to his persistent reasoning and pathetic excuses. What he's done is wrong and unforgivable.

TWISTED PROMISES (Twisted Path Book 2
When love is all you have left to lose... how do you let it go? I should've known better than to fall for Shane Montgomery. He's rich, revered, and bound to a legacy that was never meant to include a girl like me. A girl born of shadows, shaped by secrets, and marked by a past that's forever tainted me. But Shane didn't care. With that cocky smile and relentless charm, he slipped past every wall I built and made promises I was desperate to believe. We said we'd hold on. That no matter how far apart life-or our families-pulled us, we'd always find our way back to each other. But forever is a fragile thing in a world ruled by power and privilege. A world built on lies and secrets, by people who would rather see us shattered than together and happy. Now everything we had is teetering on the edge of ruin-our love, our dreams, and something even more precious... something we never imagined we'd lose. They warned us we wouldn't last. And maybe they were right. Because the deeper the betrayal, the harder the truth cuts. Not all promises are meant to be kept. And love, no matter how true, isn't always enough. In this gripping second installment of the Twisted Path Series, loyalty is tested, love is torn at the seams, and two broken souls must decide if holding on is worth the pain.

Ryan never wanted marriage, especially not with a woman already in love with someone else. Yet, he couldn't escape the weight of his father's word, a promise tying him to Samaira in a fate neither of them chose.
