Follow Her Heart

Jessie Denton’s life is a daily battle for survival. Trapped in a relentless cycle of abuse at the hands of her stepbrother Martin, Jessie’s inner dialogue has become a steady mantra: “Just one more day—just one more day, and I’ll escape.” Her world is bleak, barely a step above the gutter rats scurrying at her heels for scraps, and though her bruises fade, the pain remains. Yet she endures—until the night she meets him.

The game starts like any other: cheating and stealing, a familiar dance in a dimly lit room where trust is scarce. But when Jessie’s hand brushes against that of a stranger, everything shifts. Sir Lucian Hawthorn, a brooding nobleman who would rather be anywhere but The Mate’s Table. When his piercing gaze meets the sapphire eyes of the waif beside him, a fierce curiosity is born. He knows the boy beside him cheated, and he waits in a shadowed alley to confront him. But the streetwise “lad” who emerges from the tavern is no boy at all, but a striking young woman whose presence now haunts his every thought.

Torn between anger and a strange new desire, Lucian is captivated by this bold, resilient stranger. But can a chance encounter bridge the chasm between their worlds, forging something lasting from the spark that ignited between them? Or will secrets, betrayals, and hidden pasts turn their fledgling connection into heartbreak?

Follow Her Heart is a tale of passion, survival, and the undeniable pull between two souls from opposite worlds, bound together by fate and challenged by the shadows of their pasts.
