The Billionaire's Devotion

(Excerpt—) Their faces were still inches apart, breaths entangling. Instead of her lips, he kissed her on the cheek before pulling away to look at her. She wasn't looking at him anymore. She had trained her eyes on the view outside the window. "We could try again," Jacob said. "I don't know what you want from me." Sutton replied in a quiet voice. "I'll keep my word this time around. Six months and I'll set you free, Sutton Price."  Sutton wasn't listening anymore. Something else was on her mind. She brought her eyes to him again, and her next words were not what he expected. "What really happened to Perseus Castle?"  Jacob's hand fell away from Sutton's. His adam apple bobbed as he searched her face. He had the choice to lie. *** Jacob is a man with many demons, who finds himself entangled in a forbidden romance with his father's new wife.

Sutton is a wealthy heiress broken badly from her past; a past that ties her with the billionaire devil Jacob, even before they meet...

Chapter 79

Jacob doesn't understand any of what is going on. How can this woman before him be alive? Fox had done everything he could to find her, but it was all a futile effort. Even Fox had given up hope and doubted his findings. And now, before him in the flesh, was Vivian Sullivan. His mother. And if he was getting everything right, then Anika was his sister. She just said their family was finally complete. Everything was overwhelming. 

He was still on the floor and had no intentions of getting up. To him, he was drowning and there was no room to come up for air. His breath came out in brief gasps and the world before him seemed to fade. Vivian Sullivan was still standing before him. Her feet were in his line of view, and Jacob focused on them. He couldn't bring himself to look her in the eye.
