Falling Hard For The Forbidden

Adopted into the prestigious Blake family as a child, Amelia grew up feeling safe, loved, and most of all—drawn to her charming older brother, Ethan Blake. But when innocent affection began to grow into secret love, whispers in the mansion halls turned into harsh accusations. Her parents, scandalised by the rumours of her unrequited feelings for her adopted brother, exiled her abroad to study.



Seven years later, Amelia returns—transformed, poised, and distant. Ethan is stunned by the change. But her coldness stings the most.



Unbeknownst to Amelia, her heart is not the only one that’s changed. James Windsor—Ethan’s childhood best friend, now a billionaire CEO, had always harboured quiet affection for her. When she joins his company upon her return, sparks ignite. A steamy kiss in the rain. A slow-burning love. But love doesn’t come easy.



Secrets about Amelia’s real parents emerge. James’s vengeful ex returns, hell-bent on destroying what they’ve built. A painful breakup. A betrayal. And the truth behind why her adoptive parents never wanted her to fall in love.



In the end, love rekindles stronger than ever—but not without loss, sacrifice, and a long journey home.
