The city pulsed with life below, it's golden lights shimmering like fallen stars. Inside the towering glass penthouse, Julia Reed stood frozen , gripping the letter that would change everything for her.
Tonight was supposed to be their escape night.
She had spent years building an empire, but none of it mattered not the boardrooms, not the power, not the millions in her name . Only him Liam carter. The man who saw her , not as a ruthless businesswoman, but as a woman capable of love.
But love was dangerous in her world.
A gust of wind swept through the room as the glass doors to the balcony burst open. A shadow moved behind her . Then pain . A force against her back . She gasped and then fell darkness.
The world tilted. The letter fell slipped from her fingers.
For a fleeting moment,she saw Liam's face in her mind his warm brown eyes,the way he begged her to leave everything behind.
Then, the sky swallowed her whole.
Darkness.
