63 epsTrapped as Her Shadow
While she scrubbed in to save a stranger's child, her husband crushed the surgeon's hands that had saved thousands.
Aila is a forty-year-old design genius who signs her company over to her boyfriend Julian so she can focus on the work she loves. On her wedding day she learns what that trust bought: Julian and Evelyn, the twenty-year-old protégée she trained herself, have taken the business, the money, and her name.
With nothing left, Aila accepts a proposal from Noah, the twenty-year-old heir of the Reed family, who needs a wife with real artistic credentials to unlock his trust. It is a contract, not a romance, and it crosses twenty years and a class line. Aila uses the marriage to rebuild, and every person who wrote her off is still standing in the way.
