RomanceToo Late to Love You
For the first year of their marriage, Amelia Hart Vale believed she had found a home in Adrian Vale. He was gentle, protective, ambitious, and certain that providing for her was the same as loving her. But during their second year, work consumed him. He missed dinners, anniversaries, hospital visits, promises, and the small conversations that once made Amelia feel chosen. Adrian never cheated. He never struck her. He never stopped loving her. He simply stopped being present. Amelia fought for their marriage until waiting became more painful than being alone. By the time Adrian finally understood what his absence had done, she had already begun building a life that no longer depended on him coming home. When divorce is spoken aloud, lawyers enter their marriage and separation terms are placed before them. But leaving is not the only door Amelia wants to know how to open. As Adrian fights to rebuild what he neglected, buried Vale family secrets, forged documents, corporate manipulation, and generations of control turn their private pain into a public weapon. Now Amelia and Adrian must decide whether their marriage can become something neither of them has known before. A home where love is present, freedom is protected, and staying is a choice rather than a sentence.
