This is Part 2 of "Unraveling the Billionaire" – a five-part Hot Alpha Billionaire Romance Series by Alice Ward. *This story features Lauren from "My Stepbrother, My Lover".* From the moment I met Asher Reynolds, I had a hard time believing he was real. He was so humble and unassuming, the complete opposite of the men I met in my Ivy League past. And best of all, he was in love with me. Me. I let myself trust the fantasy and started to envision our future together. But all that changed when I overheard a conversation outside an office door. I confronted Asher with his lies, expecting him to clam up and shut me out. Instead, he told me everything. The dark parts. The dangerous parts. It was worse than I ever imagined. And once I learned the truth, the fear of his past digging its claws into our future became a constant companion in my life. I trusted Asher to protect me. But as he fought to keep the past at bay, I realized a villain was already in our midst. This book is intended for a mature audience, 18+ only.
