Narrado por: Virtual Voice

He was written down for her, but he was never meant to be hers.

Alana Jade broke down under the weight of her mate's rejection. She was rejected by the one person who she thought would always choose her.

When Noah Blaze, a fellow volunteer at the old age home, offers her a shoulder to cry on, she does not think much of it. However, as the unlikely friendship between them begins to blossom, trouble comes knocking on Alana's door again.

Cold smiles and dark hearts.

Noah Blaze had not walked into her life by a chance encounter. Alana was his means to fulfil a dark purpose. And his sister hides an even darker secret that brings Alana's world to a standstill.

Sinister intentions are exposed.

With her own sister's life on the line and hers already shred apart, Alana finds herself on crossroads as she is trapped in a cage with no means of escape.

Buried truths resurface and old graves are dug again, bringing to light the delicate, tangled web of threads that ties them all together. Because stolen kisses come with a price - a price that is long overdue.

A test of loyalty.
A test of morality.
A test of time.

Alana's loyalty is put to test and her love for her family is on the line. She is forced to make choices that threaten to rip her apart.

All that she believed in is proven to be a lie and she realises that she stands alone in a world in which people hide behind masks and lies.

A tale of dread and despair.
A tale of love and sacrifice.
A tale of vengeance and hateful promises.

Excerpts from the book:

1) "Rejection can dwindle all hopes of ever finding love again. When you lose someone close to you, it can make you guarded. Some of us don't want to get hurt again. That's all," I said.

2) I used to imagine what kind of a person he would be. I used to dream about the life that we would share, the love that we would promise each other, the warmth that we would give each other.
I had spent so many nights painting a future that I had thought was possible for me. And it had all shattered faster than the snap of a finger. Gone. Just like that, everything was gone. The dreams, the hopes, the exciting tingles. All that remained inside me now was an emptiness that I did not know how to fill.

3) Every second had become a torture that I was forced to live through. Every hour, a new fear was added to the ever-growing list that was already biting my heart hollow. Every reflection in the mirror was a reminder of who I had been and who I had become now.

4) Except me, everybody had known the truth. Nobody had told me anything. Yet, I was the one paying the price for their deeds. Only me and nobody else.
