The Velvet Scars

"She lied to protect her heart.
He lied to protect his name.
But when love returns dressed as betrayal, no secret stays stitched forever."

When the world wakes to billionaire Ethan Blackwell's engagement to another woman, Isabella Cruz swears she's finished with him-and with believing in happy endings. But when a brass key from her mother's sewing kit leads her to Milan, she uncovers Project Midnight-a mysterious fabric that listens, remembers, and betrays. The deeper she searches, the closer the truth leads back to Ethan's empire...and to the love she thought she'd buried.

Now Isabella must navigate a storm of secrets, fashion-world feuds, and whispers powerful enough to destroy reputations-and hearts. Meanwhile, Ethan fights his own war between duty and desire, bound by lies that could cost him everything.

From the cobblestone streets of Rome to the glowing runways of Milan, The Bride Who Lied is a story of passion, betrayal, and the kind of love that refuses to die quietly.

Because sometimes the heart doesn't break-it remembers.
And every scar tells a story.
