With only ten minutes to escape the clutches of death, Eliza's desperate plea for survival draws the unexpected attention of Nico Thorne, the man she once rejected. As he offers her a chance to reclaim her life and dismantle George’s empire, Eliza must decide if rekindling a past love is worth the risk of reopening old wounds.

In a tale of resilience, revenge, and rekindled passion, Eliza discovers that survival may just be the beginning of her fight for justice—and the possibility of love once again.

No More Coming Back, Ex-HusbandChapter 1

Four weeks ago, I almost died at the party organized by my husband to announce our pregnancy.

I was standing at the top of the grand staircase, two months pregnant, waiting for George to announce our news to the world. Then the chandelier fell.

I didn't even have time to scream. The last thing I felt was the crushing weight of glass and steel, and then—darkness.

When I finally floated back to consciousness, I couldn't move. My body felt heavy, like it was buried under sand. I couldn't open my eyes, but I could hear.

When I woke up, I couldn't move. I was trapped in the dark, my body heavy as lead.

But I could hear.

“Why is she stabilizing?”

George. My heart gave a weak flutter. He was here. He stayed.

“I didn't pay you to save her,” he hissed, his voice dripping with ice. “I paid you to make sure she never woke up.”

I froze. The beeping of the monitor was the only sound in the room.

“Mr. Caldwell,” the doctor stammered. “It’s a miracle she survived. The swelling—”

“It’s a disaster!” George snapped. “Do you know how inconvenient this is? The board is waiting. The insurance payout is pending. And Donna is waiting in the car.”
