THE PROXY
Adelaide March thought she'd left heartbreak behind.
After years of caring for others as a nurse, she is exhausted, disillusioned, and desperate for a fresh start. When an unusual opportunity lands in her lap, it seems too good to refuse: become the temporary girlfriend of rising political star Robert Sterling.
For Robert, it's a simple arrangement. A respectable relationship will silence the media, satisfy party expectations, and help secure his path to power. There will be rules, boundaries, and absolutely no emotions involved.
At least, that was the plan.
As Adelaide is drawn deeper into Robert's glamorous world of influence, ambition, and endless public scrutiny, the line between pretence and reality begins to blur. Behind his carefully controlled exterior, she discovers a man far different from the one the public sees, and before long, their fake relationship starts to feel dangerously real.
But someone is watching.
Someone who refuses to accept that Robert's life has moved on.
Consumed by jealousy and obsession, a woman from Robert's past is determined to reclaim what she believes belongs to her, no matter who gets hurt in the process.
As secrets unravel and threats close in, Adelaide and Robert must decide whether their love is worth fighting for, because some people will do anything to keep them apart.
A gripping tale of love, deception, obsession, and second chances, The Proxy is perfect for readers who enjoy emotional romance wrapped in suspense, danger, and unforgettable characters.
Sometimes the role you're hired to play becomes the life you were always meant to live.
