Forever (LLP)

Carson Bradley is the CEO of Bradley Pharmaceutical Corporation, a powerful and influential multi-billion dollar drug empire. His wealth spans beyond anyone's imagination, but is useless to his lonely soul, which has been dormant since the death of his first love to cancer. Every day he strives for the sake of his research because he's determined to eradicate that vile disease forever. Lillian Ly is a young, humble medical student whose compassion for people is boundless. Being raised poor by a single parent, she matured quickly and respects the sacrifices her mother has made for her. Lillian's determination leads her down a stringent five-year path with no room for love. When a tropical storm forces their paths to cross at an unlikely place thousands of miles away from home, they both realize love isn't a matter of choice or determination-love is powerful and irrepressible, especially between two kind-hearted people with a common interest in healing the world. Carson is familiar with desolation-fifteen years to be exact. With Lillian by his side, he will never return to that dark place again-even if it means dragging her through his ugly past and into his dangerous world of pharmaceutical rivalries. Lillian's uncomplicated life will soon be a distant memory as she follows her heart to be with the only man she's ever loved. Together, they will endure any obstacle to hold on to their forever.

When tragedy strikes it doesn't always signal the end. Sometimes it can mean a new beginning . . . Still reeling from the events of the past culminating in her devastating loss, an emotionally scarred Lillian Ly is determined to follow her heart and temporarily forego a bright academic career to keep alive the only thing that matters, being with the man she loves. Guilt pours over Carson Bradley like molten lava, but despite his shame, he cannot let her go. She is the flame to his fire, the soul of his heart. Without Lillian by his side, he is just a body without a warm pulse. Now with news of two missing researchers, whose survival is based on a drug formula that he is unable to deliver, he fears the kidnappers will stop at nothing to get what they want-ensuring Lillian's life is also in danger. Desperate to obtain the missing drug components and keep Lillian safe, Carson's unreasonable behavior combined with Lillian's strong-defensive will-collide-threatening their future. Lillian knows she loves him irrevocably, but can she survive in Carson's volatile world? Contains mature themes.

If your love for someone is greater than your own life, what would you sacrifice to keep her safe? The world and everything you've worked most of your life to procure? That is CEO Carson Bradley's catch-22. Unfortunately for Carson, his rivals have discovered his only weakness-Lillian Ly, the owner of his heart. The power behind his new cancer drug is what they desire, and they will stop at nothing to seize it. If necessary, kidnapping and murder are just the means to an end. How desperate would he be if she falls into their greedy hands? Carson can no longer shield Lillian from the ugly secrets of his cutthroat pharmaceutical world. His dominance and vigilance are what protects her. Can he convince her of this, or will her stubbornness be her downfall? With all the obstacles in their path, the journey to their happily forever will be a trying one. Will their love get them to the end? Contains mature themes.
