Whispers of the Forgotten

Enemies, Exiles and Forbidden Desire Collide

Three years ago, Dr. Gabriela Vega was forced out of Marlow University in a scandal that shattered her career—and her trust. Now she’s back, not as a professor, but as a consultant on a federal ethics investigation that could expose the very secrets that cost her everything.

She swore she’d never return. But the past doesn’t stay buried at Marlow. Its halls still echo with betrayal, ambition…and the man she could never quite forget.

Marcus Wynn built his reputation on integrity. Brilliant, uncompromising, and infuriatingly steady, Marcus once stood against Gabriela when the university turned on her. But the truth is far more complicated—and so are his feelings for the woman he’s tried, and failed, to erase from his memory.

Now, forced to work side by side, Gabriela and Marcus find themselves walking a dangerous line between justice and desire. Old wounds reopen, old flames ignite, and every whispered secret threatens to pull them under.

Some legacies are meant to be forgotten. Theirs refuses to be silenced.
