Burned Hearts

Aline Everly's life is a battleground. The memory of her twin sister, Arlene—gone too soon, claimed by a tragic accident—is a constant ache that gnaws at her soul. She can't escape the crushing guilt that it was her fault, that she could have saved her sister. The world of fame and fortune offers no solace, only betrayal, broken promises, and backstabbing in the shadows of Hollywood. But it's Dylan Barclay who haunts her in the deepest, most twisted way. Dylan, Arlene's lover, accuses Aline of taking everything from him. His venomous words cut deeper than any wound, but it's the dark intensity in his eyes that traps her. She should hate him. She does. And yet, every part of her longs for him, craves him—knows that in his dangerous love, she might find something that could either save her or destroy her. Jake Rivera, the one man who has always been there, offers her a different kind of love. Quiet, patient, and steady, Jake promises peace. But how can Aline ever choose the warmth of his light when the storm of Dylan's obsession pulls her under? Aline begins to understand that some loves are more than just painful—they're impossible. And yet, she can't stop herself from being drawn into the chaos of a heart that isn't hers to love, a passion that's too dark to deny. But soon, the choice is taken out of her hands, as someone else, one whose love burns brighter than her own, threatens to destroy everything and everyone tangled up in the love triangle. But soon, the choice is no longer hers to make. Someone else enters the scene—someone whose love burns brighter than her own—and threatens to tear apart everything and everyone caught in the tangled web of the love triangle.
