A lifetime of friendship…
When my best friend of almost twenty years was involved in a car accident that wasn’t an accident at all, I dropped everything in my life thousands of miles away and came to his aid. Someone wanted him dead. The wreckage of his mangled custom-built Porsche and his equally broken body were testament to that. I had to move fast because his family agreed to unplug his life support hours after the attempted murder.
The truth isn’t always convenient…
I didn’t have legal grounds to stop it, and I didn’t try. Working behind the shadowy scenes, the way my mercenary father taught me, I stole his fractured body, a body his family thought was dead and cremated. At least, they assumed that it was his body they had turned to ash.
Now I must do whatever it takes to keep him hidden and alive. Not only are we friends and business partners, but he is also the man that I have loved for what feels like forever. I knew that he could never love me the way that I love him. How could he? He has only known me as his male best friend, Pax. Never suspecting that the boy he grew up with, rough-housed with, fought alongside, and even picked up women with, was not a male. Not only am I a female, but I am also an African Princess exiled and hiding from relatives who would want me dead if they knew I existed.
But then, the truth will always set you free…
I wish that had been the last of the deceptions, but I later found out that my best friend had secrets of his own. With twenty years of friendship between us, our deceptions shouldn’t have been so flawlessly executed.
Genre: Romance
