The space between them was suppose to be PERMANENT, but maybe some distances weren't meant to LAST. 

Vera Leung has spent her life in the shadows, the overlooked heir to Leung & Co. While her brother is set to inherit the family empire, she refuses to stand by and let it happen. She's spent years proving she's just as capable, if not more. No distractions. No mistakes. No room for failure.

But then there's Lawrence Lancaster. A self-made success, effortlessly charming and dangerously perceptive for his own good. Once a ghost from her past, now standing in her way. A temporary professor with a clever tongue, a fortune built on his own terms, and a smirk that makes her blood boil. Everyone wants to unravel his mystery, but the only puzzle he's interested in is Vera. 

The more she tries to push him away, the more he gets under her skin. Because Lawrence doesn't just see the polished version of her that the world expects. He sees the fire she's buried. The hunger she tries to ignore. And worst of all, he looks at her like he still knows her.

She can't afford to let him in.

But in a game of ambition, power, and a past neither of them can outrun... the line between love and hate has never been thinner.Tutti i diritti riservati

The Journey Forward | Novel Version di DCVbookfan

AN: I've finally begun to expand my 2023 Novella into a Novel, thanks to @LemuelMcMillan for reading the Novella and inspiring me to develop it. I plan to publish one chapter twice a month, although I may occasionally publish a bonus or catch-up chapter in between weeks if I'm able. ------------------------------ Between two worlds and two names, she must unearth the power within to shape her own future. ------------------------------- When Dr. Baiyu Tang volunteers for the Christmas night shift, she expects quiet halls and the usual sacrifices of an ICU physician. Instead, a catastrophic accident floods her small Midwestern hospital with patients, and one, a hauntingly calm man named Mr. Wei, changes everything. Hours later, a crash leaves Baiyu between life and death. She awakens not in a hospital bed, but in the silken red wedding chamber of Xiang Bai, a noblewoman in an ancient empire. The only clue to her fate is a keeper who claims she has been chosen, and a husband, General Bao, who is as honorable as he is enigmatic. As Baiyu navigates court politics, ancient customs, and her own haunting past, she must merge two lives, reconcile two hearts, and decide which world she truly belongs to. The Journey Forward is a sweeping tale of second chances, hidden power, and love that defies lifetimes. ------------------------- Based on my 2023 ONC Novella by the same name. ------------------------- © DCVBookfan.

Wrong Bride To The Right Husband di Romanc_Empire

Aria is the beautiful, smart, and beloved daughter-praised by everyone and trusted with their father's company. But her twin sister, Alina, lives constantly in her shadow-unseen, uncelebrated, and forced to work under Aria's command. When Aria causes a major financial loss to a powerful, mysterious company owned by an unknown billionaire, their father is forced to pay a large sum in compensation. But it's not enough. In return, the company demands an unusual form of settlement: the CEO responsible must marry their CEO until the debt is cleared. To protect Aria, their parents make a secret decision. Alina is forced to marry the unknown CEO in Aria's place. She's terrified-of the marriage, the man, and the new life ahead. No one knows what he looks like, and he's never appeared in the media. He's a complete enigma. Alina's first night in the mansion is unsettling-she's kissed from behind by a stranger while humming a song known only to her and a long-lost love. The kiss stirs something in her, something painfully familiar. And when she finally meets her husband, Darren Blackwood, she's stunned. He looks familiar-too familiar-but she can't place him. As days pass, memories from eight years ago start surfacing. Clues hidden in the house, songs, and gestures slowly unravel the truth: Darren is the man who once loved her and vanished from her life. The heartbreak returns-but so does the spark. Their love story reignites, beginning with slow trust and deep emotion. But Aria, full of jealousy and rage, isn't done. She wages a subtle war to tear them apart, using lies and manipulation to destroy Alina's newfound happiness. Yet, against the odds, and despite the pain of the past, Darren and Alina prove that love-true, hard-earned love-can conquer even the deepest wounds and fiercest enemies.
