"I'm so sorry for leading you down that path and leaving you in the cold arms of death. Would you ever let your heart accept me again?" Rick pleaded.

His words made no difference, because as far as I was concerned, he and everyone involved in making my life a living hell must pay dearly.

"Emma, please, for the sake of this innocent child, forgive me," he crouched low, his hands clasped together in agony.

"That can't be possible, not when all three children are ours," Jack's voice loomed from behind.

Our eyes turned to him, masked in confusion.


*****

Emma was betrayed by her husband on their anniversary. He accused her of infidelity and left her in the cold arms of death.

Six years later, she returns as Catherine Moore, completely stripped of her memories. The betrayal from six years ago had left her with amnesia.

As fate would have it, she meets with Rick. Not only does he become involved in her life again, but Jack Brown, her high school crush, also returns, even as she lives as Catherine Moore.

Amid a flood of twists and turns, what will Emma do when she finally regains her memories?

Will she choose revenge, love, or let fate take its course?

ECHOES OF BETRAYAL

A silent groan rumbled through my chest. My foot turned bright red at the spot, the area swollen with a sharp pain that coursed through my spine.

I crouched down to check the spot, resting my arms on my knees. My heart was heavy with worry.

I felt a strange sense of danger. Something wasn't right. I could feel it deep down in my bones, but I couldn't describe what exactly it was.

Was it when I saw Doctor Kate with those guards? Or the strange hotel encounter I still couldn't believe involved Catherine?
