Emily’s Choice

Emily Lawrence has always been the obedient daughter — until Mr. Adrian Williams returns to the neighboring estate.

Her father forbids any contact. He won’t explain why. But when illness forces Emily into Adrian’s company, she discovers a man who challenges everything she’s been told — and a connection that terrifies and thrills her in equal measure.

The more her heart pulls her toward Adrian, the more her father’s warnings grow desperate. Something happened eight years ago, something tied to her mother’s death and the Williams family’s sudden departure. And her father will do anything to keep it buried.

Caught between duty and desire, Emily faces an impossible choice: obey the father who’s protected her all her life, or follow her heart into a truth that could destroy them all.

A forbidden acquaintance. A father’s hidden past. Can she risk disobedience to follow her heart?
