The wife he tried to bury
“Betrayed by the man she loved, stripped of her fortune and left for dead, Elena Voss wakes up in a stranger's body with nothing but a burning desire for revenge. Marcus Hale is a self-made billionaire charming on the surface, cold and calculating underneath. He married Elena for her money, drained her inheritance and publicly humiliated her on their third anniversary. He believes she is dead but he is wrong,she got a second chance and a new life. Now living as Vivian Hart, Elena is closer to Marcus than ever before and this time, she holds all the cards. Will she destroy the man who destroyed her? Or will the truth of his regret be enough to stop her?”
