Belgrave Dynasty

I was just eight-years-old when Asa Calhoun became my one true love. He was my brother's best friend. He was stoic and solemn, and always believed everything in life had to be perfect. But I saw past his eccentric mannerisms. I found him fascinating. I was seventeen when I had my debutante ball. Throughout the years, there was a gradual shift between us. I stopped being the little sister he's always known me as and transformed into a lady. By the end of that night, he found me fascinating. I was twenty-one when he first kissed me. My one true love became my soulmate. I was certain nothing would ever come between us. I married at twenty-three. But I wasn't Mrs. Asa Calhoun. At the time I believed it was for the best, leaving Belgrave and my memories of Asa behind. I was twenty-eight when my husband died. The pain was swift and sharp. I saw what could have been and all that I let go of. Including Asa. Nearly seven months later I'm back in Charleston, because six years of a broken heart is too much for anyone to endure. Asa once told me he would always be my home, but will he still mean those words when I walk through the church doors and object to his marriage? Contains mature themes.

Nathalie: When I came back to Charleston, I intended to take back my future and my one true love, Asa Calhoun. Life had different plans for me. As I try to move forward in my life, years of memories and passion between us refuse to stay buried in the past, leading me back to Asa. But many things changed me over the past six years, including both love and betrayal. If I don't face these truths, I might lose myself, and Asa, forever. Asa: When I married Juliet Breymas I tried to replace the one person I wouldn't allow myself to have, Nathalie. I never expected she'd return. Throughout the years we would come together, only to drift apart. Sometimes by choice, other times by chance. But one thing always remained the same. I couldn't seem to stay away from her. Life should be different now. I have a wife. Yet once again, it's Nathalie I want. And the woman I married, well, she isn't what she seems. The longer I stay married to her, the more certain I am that Juliet has secrets she's hiding. If I don't discover the truth, I risk losing Nathalie forever. Contains mature themes.
