Never Yours Again

Ryan once relied on the Hale family for support in her small-town youth and quietly loved Rowan for four years. Yet Rowan ended their relationship for a family marriage and became engaged to Isla, a well-born heiress. Five years later, Ryan came back after studying abroad as a capable career woman, only to find herself working under Rowan. As Rowan tried to win back what he had lost and Isla deliberately made trouble for her, Ryan stayed calm and clear-eyed. She chose not to return to the past, using her insight and determination to build her own success, rise beyond class boundaries, and live on her own terms.
