Synopsis
Can ten years of love survive the deceit that stole everything? Emily woke from a devastating accident with no memory—and stepped straight into a fairytale. For ten years, she's lived a perfect life in the Caribbean with her devoted husband Keith and their children. Until a chance encounter in London with enigmatic billionaire Alejandro Ruiz awakens fragments of a life she can't remember. Now two men stand at the center of her past: one who has been her anchor for a decade, and one who never stopped searching for her. But only one holds the heartbreaking truth that will shatter her world. As dangerous enemies from her past resurface, Emily must face impossible choices between the life she knows and the one she's forgotten. Will the truth finally heal her — or break her completely? Book 1 in the Love Beyond the Fairytale series—a sweeping saga of women's fiction with romance, suspense, and emotional depth. Each book follows a different couple and can be read as a standalone. No cliffhangers. Heartfelt HEA. Closed Door. Perfect for fans of Nora Roberts, Danielle Steel, and Nicholas Sparks.
