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

"Say goodbye?" Rome's voice was cold. "Didn't you already do that when you said you were leaving? Miss Lincolm already knows you're going—so why say goodbye again?"

"No… not to Miss Sylvia," Gabriel replied innocently. "I want to say goodbye to Egypt and Paris too—for taking care of me."

The moment I heard those words, it felt like ice water had been poured over me.

My feet froze at the doorway—I couldn't move. And I wasn't the only one.

The air shifted. Even Rome's friends went completely still, as if they hadn't expected that response either.

"Egypt and Paris?" Rome repeated, his voice low with suspicion. I didn't need to look—I could feel his gaze turning toward me.

"Yes," Gabriel nodded. "They're my good friends now. They comforted me and even invited me to their room. They're really kind kids, Dad. That's why I want to say goodbye to them before we go home."
