Stolen Empire, Stolen Child, Stolen Life

From the back cover

I was pregnant, the creative force behind a culinary empire I was building with my husband, Donovan. My best friend, Jazmine, was our closest confidante, the one I' d held through detox.

Then I found the hidden folder on his server. A revised partnership agreement transferred my entire life's work-my recipes, my concepts, all future profits-to Jazmine. My name was erased.

But the betrayal was far more sinister. I found their emails and audio recordings. Jazmine was infertile, and I was their "incubator," a surrogate they planned to discard.

They had a plan to declare me mentally unstable after the birth, take my baby, and even discussed arranging a "tragic accident" to get me out of the picture for good.

My husband and my best friend didn't just want my career; they wanted my child and my life.

So I gave them a death. I burned my old life to the ground and disappeared, faking my own funeral to save my baby.
