Little did she know that there were two pairs of eyes in the distance, watching her intently.

There was something about her presence that made it difficult to look away.
She stood firm, unshaken, as if the past had left no scars on her.
The realization unsettled him more than he expected.
Did she not care anymore? Had she really moved on that easily? His fingers curled slightly against his knee, but his face remained impassive
Charles arched a brow his tone teasing. Didn’t expect her to be that good, huh? People respect her. She’s got presence.”
Arnold remained silent. He wouldn’t admit it, bur Charles was right
There was an undeniable force in the way she carried herself.
The way she spoke, the way she moved–it all exuded certainty, self–assurance,

Linda, despite her best efforts, was not seated beside him.
Instead, she found herself in the middle rows.
As she settled into her seat, her gaze swept over the front row, and her stomach clenched.
Nora was there
Her fingers tightened around the program booklet in her lap
The seat Nora occupied wasn’t quite as prestigious as Arnold’s, but it was certainly better than hers.
A seat given only to elite practitioners–acknowledgment of skill and talent. Linda gritted her teeth. Why is she always ahead?

I still don’t see the regret from her husband and son No divorce yet I would like to see Nora and Cole hooking up together...
neverending story.....repeated same story lines....boring...
What a bad spot for the book to come to an end, I truly do hope there is more to come would be sad to not have a ending to this story........
This page has repeated same story lines that was already said.......
Iam kinda wondering if the writer may speak another language??? Cause iam noting that some of the words kind of seem like another language I could be wrong but every page has a spelling mistake it's making it hard to understand most of what is happening in the book....
Iam loving this book so far but it would have been much better if someone had prof read it 1st there is alot of spelling mistakes some of which I knew what was meant but some I have no clue at all....
Is there any more...
