In a world where secrets simmer beneath perfect smiles, When Love and Lies Collide unravels the story of hearts entangled in betrayal, longing, and redemption.

Eleanor Thorne is no stranger to loss, but nothing prepares her for the storm that arrives when Victor—the man with a haunting past and secrets of his own—re-enters her life. Bound by a love that once burned bright, they are now forced to confront the lies that tore them apart. As truths begin to surface, Eleanor finds herself caught between a love that never died and the pain that never healed.

Set against the backdrop of the mysterious Cavendish Manor, this emotionally rich tale explores how far one would go for love—and what happens when the truth finally catches up.

Will love survive the lies? Or will the past destroy any chance at a future?

When Love and Lies Collide

The gardens of Cavendish Manor stretched out before me, bathed in the soft glow of the late afternoon sun. The neatly trimmed hedges and blooming roses stood in stark contrast to the storm that raged within me. 


I had come here for solitude. To think. To escape the weight pressing against my chest. 


I exhaled, running a hand through my hair as I paced the stone pathway. I had told myself—over and over—that my feelings for her were nothing more than admiration. A deep respect for her resilience, her intelligence. But the truth was far less simple. I wanted her. 


I had spent my life bound by duty. By rules. By expectations that had been set long before I could even understand them. Love—true love—had never been something I allowed myself to consider. 


But Eleanor made me question everything.
