Sylvia Lincolm is an orphan and a single mom who’s done everything to raise her five-year-old twin daughters on her own. Their life is simple but filled with love—and that’s all she’s ever wanted. But everything begins to fall apart when she crosses paths with the friends of Rome Hariston—the man who once promised her forever, only to break her heart and leave without ever knowing she was pregnant.

Rome’s friends notice the striking resemblance between him and the twins, stirring up questions Sylvia has tried to avoid for years. Now, with her past threatening to collide with her present, Sylvia must protect her daughters—and her heart—from the man who once left her behind… but might never let her go again.

The Mistress Who Ran Away With The Twins

Rome's anger surged when Ingrid mentioned the name of the one man he never wanted to hear again—the same man who had once betrayed him.

His jaw tightened, and the veins on his neck visibly strained as his fury began to boil over.

His fists clenched so tightly his knuckles turned white.

"Oh? Did that strike a nerve?" she said with a mocking smile. "Good. Then good luck trying to win Sylvia back—because I doubt she won't betray you again, just like she did before—"

"Get out! Leave before I lose control and actually do something I'll regret!" Rome shouted, his voice rising with raw anger. He looked like he was at his limit—barely holding himself together.

Seeing the fury in his eyes and knowing she had pushed him right to the edge, Ingrid finally stepped back. She had said everything she came to say—or rather, everything she needed to hurt him.
