The flight attendant’s voice carried down the aisle, loud enough for the entire cabin to hear. “We need airport police to meet the gate. First class, seat 1A. Minor. Possible fraudulent boarding.” 12-year-old Eliza Monroe froze in her seat. Every pair of eyes in first class turned toward her. The businessman in 1B pulled his laptop a little closer. A woman 2 rows back raised an eyebrow. The man across the aisle actually stood up to get a better look. Eliza did not move. She could not. Her boarding pass…

Billionaire Gabriel was the only son of Chief Amzandu and had lived abroad since the age of twenty. After the death of his father, Gabriel returned home to take over the family business. His mother, Gloria, was a classy and beautiful woman, yet very humble and caring. She employed three maids in her large mansion: Erica, Georgina, and Joy. The three women had been working for her long before her son returned to the country, and each of them was always looking for a way to get Gabriel’s attention, but…

Her best friend steals her wealthy fiancé. Not in secret, not in the shadows, but in the front pew of the church where she was supposed to walk down the aisle.
