Where Daylight Lingers (Heritage Jewels #2)

Troianne Dela Vega is living every girl's dream. She's a rising model with beauty, fame and friends who adore her but behind the spotlight, her heart belongs to one man: Alonzo Vizcarra. Her brother's best friend and the unattainable CEO of Vizcarra Heritage Jewels. He's always treated her like family and she's long accepted that his heart will never be hers.

Until everything falls apart. When Troianne is accused of a scandal she didn't cause, her image and career shatter overnight. To escape the chaos, her family sends her to Isla Real de Las Paces, an island meant to give her a fresh start. Her only rule: live quietly, no luxuries, no headlines.

But Troianne never expected that the person tasked to watch over her would be Alonzo himself. Away from the city and its expectations, their walls begin to fall and for the first time, Alonzo sees her not as his best friend's little sister but as the woman she's become.

Yet when the summer ends and the real world demands its price, Troianne must face the hardest choice of all: stay in paradise with the man she's always loved or return to the city to reclaim the life she lost.
