A Heart of Desire and Deceit by Elayna R. Gallea
How does one pick up the pieces of their life after it has been obliterated by the person they mistakingly trusted?
Ryker Waterborn’s heart is broken, and his wife is a killer. Their marriage is a sham, built on a foundation of murder, lies, and deceit. They’re broken. Destroyed. Yet, even after hearing her confession, Ryker cannot leave Brynleigh in the Pit.
In an act of foolish love, he makes a deal to set Brynleigh free. All she has to do is go back to her Maker and find evidence that Jelisette de la Point is a traitor.
That’s easier said than done, but Brynleigh is left with no choice. She can either accept the deal or rot behind bars. Worse than all that is her relationship with Ryker.
Once, she thought they’d get a happy ending. Now, an ocean divides them.
She broke the rules and fell in love, but is love powerful enough to save them?
This is the second half of Ryker and Brynleigh’s duet, and should be read after A Game of Love and Betrayal.
