When art curator Madeline Carter steps into a Manhattan gallery, her life changes forever. Staring back at her is a portrait that shouldn’t exist—a painting of a woman who looks exactly like her. That woman was Amelia Knight, the late fiancée of billionaire Ethan Blackwood, whose tragic death left behind unanswered questions and a legacy of grief.

What begins as a chance encounter turns into a web of secrets, lies, and forbidden emotions. Ethan, haunted by Amelia’s memory, finds himself drawn to Madeline in ways that blur the line between past and present. But as Madeline uncovers Amelia’s hidden journal, she realizes Amelia’s death was no accident—it was murder.

Each revelation pulls Madeline deeper into Ethan’s world, where betrayal lurks in boardrooms and shadows follow her every step. Rachel Hayes, Ethan’s loyal assistant, harbors dangerous secrets of her own, while Daniel Pierce, his business partner, has everything to gain from silencing the truth.

Torn between her growing feelings for Ethan and the deadly risks of unveiling the past, Madeline must decide: walk away and stay safe, or fight for the truth and risk becoming the next victim.

In a story of love born from ashes, Billionaire’s Forbidden Desire is a gripping tale of forbidden attraction, betrayal, and courage—where the heart’s greatest risk may also be its greatest reward.
