98 epsBound by Fire
Returning from eight bloody years on the imperial frontier, the decorated prince discovered his secret lover bound to a wooden execution pyre.
Lucinda's wedding day ends with an empty aisle and a doctor's word she takes as a death sentence. One reckless night with a stranger is meant to be her last bit of living. Weeks later the diagnosis turns out to be wrong — and she is carrying six babies, not a tumor.
Six years on, she is raising a houseful of clever, scheming kids on almost nothing. Her eldest son Aaron decides the family needs a father and tracks down billionaire Harrison Huo, engineering a job for his mother as the man's assistant. Harrison wants custody of Aaron and offers a fortune for him, never guessing there are five more children. Lucinda hides the rest to keep them all, while Harrison's grandmother quietly works as their cleaner, watching for the truth.
