Claiming His Secret Heir
Joanne Rock
Secrets, lies and love will come to the surface!Damon McNeill’s wife has returned a year after leaving him – but between her amnesia and the baby boy she’s cradling, he’s suddenly unsure of what really happened. Will he untangle the deception surrounding her disappearance in time to salvage their marriage?
Can he win back his wife?
When Caroline McNeill shows up outside her husband’s mansion, she claims to have no memory of the past year...or their passion-filled honeymoon. But faking amnesia is the only way Caroline can find out if Damon was behind her abduction. She needs to trust him—a man she craves but still barely knows—before she can tell him about their infant son. Did the Silicon Valley mogul merely marry to claim an inheritance then dispose of her? Or is what they share real and forever?
Holy. Hell.
Damon stopped on the stone driveway leading down to the wrought iron gate.
A woman stood outside the heavy bars, her fingers clutching the filigree that surrounded the house number in the center of the entrance. She was the right height. Even from this distance, he could recognize those dark brown eyes. The delectably full lips. The hair that had once been sun-streaked blond was now a shade of honey-gold pinned back in a way that showed hollows under cheeks formerly rounded with good health. Her frame was thinner. Her skin paler. And her expression was wary, lacking the vibrant self-confidence of the capable businesswoman he remembered.
Yet there wasn’t a single doubt in his mind.
“Caroline.”
He forced himself into motion again, even though he had no idea what he would say to his long-lost wife.
