Atonement (Revealed Series: Book Two) Paperback

Long gone were the days of the naïve intern and her charismatic boss; or so she thought. Years removed from the disastrous events that resulted in cruel words, stinging resentment and a broken heart, Gage Taylor Weston had finally moved on. Finding solace, confidence and purpose in her tenacious pursuit of a career in law, she no longer cried about the youthful romance lost or pondered over the one-sided love affair that had effectively ruined her life. That is, not until she found herself on the receiving end of fate’s pummeling hand. Now, in order to realize her dreams and professional goals, she must return to a place where neither distance nor time had provided an antidote for betrayal and hurt feelings.

And to a man who didn’t easily forget…or forgive.

Fast cars and faster women were the only remedies Martin Toussaint had sought out to numb the pain of having such an unexpected treasure excavated from his heart. After prolonged days of coveted what-ifs and endless nights of rigid stubbornness, he ultimately vowed to never again give his heart proxy over his brain. Easily falling back into a life of fierce negotiations in the boardroom and noncommittal connections in the bedroom, Martin found himself to be unapologetic and all the better for it. Then came the called-in favor that provoked an abrupt about-face to his otherwise carefree life.

Try as they might to unravel the ties that had previously bound together their hearts, all efforts soon prove futile as a seemingly chance reunion between Martin and Gage turns out to be not only explosive, but also predestined. And this time, as they try their hands at a happily ever after, the couple will come face-to-face with the sorts of obstacles—from the people they love and circumstances they couldn’t have imagined—that were meant to render a fledgling love like theirs, dead on arrival. Shaken by uncovered truths and lies, how will either of them be able to trust again? They both have much to answer for and when they do, nothing will ever be the same.
