He’s the arrogant billionaire who’ll stop at nothing to reclaim the woman he betrayed. She’s the one whose heart he broke—and who vowed she’d never take him back.

Three years ago, I watched Vance Falcon leave the country with another woman on the morning news—from the hotel penthouse we’d shared the night before.

Twenty years my senior, and sinfully charming, he’d made me believe we shared a real connection. But he didn’t just deceive me in love. He took everything I’d worked for with him.

I’ve hated him for it every day since.

Now Vance is back—the same egotistical alpha who won’t accept no for an answer, demanding that I give him a second chance.

But I’ve built my highly successful career and planned my future without him. I refuse to let him tear it all apart.

There’s just one problem: Dr Vance Falcon is as insanely hot as he was the day we met—and just as persuasive. He insists that I’m his angel and I’ll always be his.

And resisting him is proving almost impossible…

But loving Vance Falcon cost me dearly once. What if this time it costs me everything?

In Love and Betrayal is a sizzling billionaire-lover, second-chance, dual-point-of-view romance, starring the heart-stoppingly sexy Dr Vance Falcon and his greatest obsession: beautiful, independent and successful Dove Fairfax. Perfect for fans of T L Swan and Rosa Lucas.
