Love's Fleeting Splendor

At 20, Lena Norwood marries Micah Shaw—her father's friend, who is younger than him but older than her.He's eight years her senior and known in their circle as a cold-blooded kingpin. He's ruthless in business and completely uninterested in women… except when it comes to her.With Lena, he's impossibly gentle. She casually compliments a necklace, and the next day, she receives a collection of million-dollar jewels.When her cramps leave her curled up in bed, he drops a billion-dollar deal to personally make her warm soup, feeding it to her spoon by spoon.When desire takes over, he grips her waist, voice hoarse as he whispers, "Baby, you're so sweet, it's addictive."All his social media accounts are named "For Alice". She always thought it was a tribute to the song she played on the piano the day they first met.Until one day... she finds an old photo album tucked away in his study.
