Delilah Kane vowed she'd never return to Blackwater Bay after the scandal that tore her family apart five years ago. But when her estranged sister Ivy's fiancé is arrested for money laundering three weeks before their wedding, Delilah has no choice but to come home for damage control.
As the older sister who always cleaned up Ivy's messes, Delilah expects the usual drama. What she doesn't expect is for Ivy's ex-fiancé, Vaughn Blackwood, to show up at her hotel room door six months later-out on bail, stripped of his fortune, and confessing that Ivy set him up to take the fall for her own crimes.
The evidence Vaughn presents is undeniable. Delilah knows the sister everyone thinks is perfect has always been capable of calculating cruelty. But helping the man Ivy nearly destroyed means betraying her own flesh and blood. Even worse, the simmering attraction between Delilah and Vaughn-the one they'd both desperately ignored during family holidays and wedding planning-now threatens to explode into something neither can control.
As they work together to expose Ivy's network of financial crimes, Delilah finds herself falling for the one man she's forbidden to want. And when Ivy discovers their secret alliance, she doesn't just threaten to destroy Vaughn completely-she vows to take her sister down with him.
In Blackwater Bay, where old money rules and family secrets run deeper than the harbor, Delilah must choose between the sister who betrayed her trust and the man who makes her question everything she thought she knew about loyalty, desire, and how far she'll go for the wrong kind of love.

A Tale of Two Hearts
Ivy Taylor is unique in the lavish world of London's high society, where scandals and old money rule supreme. As the daughter of a self-made millionaire who loves poetry and painting, she is accustomed to feeling alienated from the elite. But one fateful night at a grand gala changes everything when she crosses paths with Arnold Wellington, the irresistible billionaire heir whose charm hides a life dictated by duty. Their connection is instant, their chemistry undeniable-but their love is forbidden. Arnold is bound by an engagement to Isabella Edward, a woman as cunning as she is beautiful, who will stop at nothing to claim what she believes is hers. As whispers of their secret affair spread, Ivy finds herself thrust into the public eye, the unwilling face of a scandal that could destroy them both. Painted as the villain in a story she didn't write, the real betrayal comes from closer to home. A trusted confidant, pushed by desperation and manipulation, sells a damning secret to a cunning puppet master in the shadows. This betrayal sets the stage for heartbreak, unleashing a storm of lies, revenge, and shattered loyalties. As their worlds unravel, the billionaire faces a choice: defy his powerful family and risk losing everything for love or surrender to the expectations that have defined his life. Even if the weight of controversy threatens to overwhelm her, Ivy must find the strength to soar above the chaos. The gorgeous, ugly world of high society, where every choice has a cost and every smile conceals a secret, is the setting for the romantic and deceptive narrative The Tale of Two Hearts. Who will win this contest of love, devotion, and ambition, and who will lose in the end?

He doesn't know how much he's breaking my heart right now. "Trinity, I don't know how to show you how much sorry I am." He states, rubbing his face with his hand in frustration. "You can't, your 'sorry' doesn't changed what happened." I point to my face, where the bandage is. "This could have been prevented but you didn't even move a muscle to come and save me." "Trinity, if I did that it could have ruined my plans." He says, lowly. "It doesn't matter. If you truly love me like you say you do, you wouldn't have hesitated to come save me. I was so scared Aaron, I thought I was going to die." I respond, tears spilling before I can stop them. "I do love you Trin, I love you so fucking much." He states, clutching his shirt where his heart is. "Not like the way I love you Aaron. If you were in the position I was in, I wouldn't have fucking hesitated to come save you. I would die for you and you clearly wouldn't do the same." - Trinity's planner didn't originally have "falling in love with Aaron Florence" on it, but after a heated night and multiple dates, it became a daily thing. That is until, she learns about what he does for work. She knew he worked with Reid Laurent, but she didn't know about what they did. Ambitious, Aaron Florence is willing to do anything to finish a work task, or mission, even if it puts his loved ones in danger. And it did. Now, terrified and pregnant, Trinity doesn't know what to do, how can she co-parent with the man who claimed to protect her at all costs but didn't? - scandalous © r3mismylove 2022 all rights reservedZakończone

Skylar quickly finds herself caught in Adrian's world, a world that feels thrilling and intoxicating... until it all comes crashing down. And then one truth shatters everything... A truth so devastating it sends her running into the storm. A truth she may never forgive. A truth that ends with screeching tires, shattered glass, and darkness. When she wakes, her memory is gone. But the secret remains. Who can she trust when everyone around her has something to hide? What is Adrian keeping buried behind that smoldering gaze? And when the forgotten truths finally come to light... will they ruin her, or set her free?
