After Midnight

AFTER MIDNIGHT A Novel of Desire, Loyalty & Dangerous Love Some love stories begin with a spark. Others begin with a warning. At forty-one, Camille Monroe has built a successful career, an independent life, and walls strong enough to keep heartbreak out. After a devastating betrayal, she has sworn off love. Her peace is hard-earned, and she refuses to let anyone disrupt it. Then she meets Roman King. Powerful, confident, dangerously charming, and fiercely loyal, Roman is a successful businessman with a complicated past. Their attraction is immediate, undeniable, and impossible to ignore. But just as Camille begins to lower her guard, a chilling warning arrives from the last person she expects—her former fiancé. Stay away from Roman King. What begins as an intoxicating romance quickly becomes a dangerous journey through buried secrets, financial deception, family betrayals, and loyalties that could destroy everything they've worked to build. As enemies from the past threaten their future, Camille must decide whether Roman is the greatest risk of her life—or the love she's been waiting for. Roman must confront a truth he's spent years avoiding: protecting the woman he loves means trusting her with the truth, even when it could cost him everything.
