To the world beyond, Philippe Duval, former eminent surgeon, husband to Julia, father to Pippa, has a life other men envy. Wealth beyond anyone’s imagining. A life of leisure. A lovely wife. A delightful young daughter. A mansion on New York’s Long Island. A luxurious home commanding views of Sydney Harbour.
He has embraced his new life of wealth and privilege, unexpectedly bequeathed by the father he never knew. But has this new life changed him in ways he hadn’t expected?
Is the lure of a beautiful woman who should be out of bounds too much for him to resist? A decade earlier, he had turned his back on Karen Clarke to marry his long lost love Julia Belleville, the mother of his daughter Pippa.
But now he is less cautious. Karen makes one final attempt to capture the heart of the man she has loved for so long. And this time she is determined not to fail. She will do whatever it takes to become his wife.
Against this backdrop of personal turmoil, another woman reaches out to befriend him. Returning to America without his wife, Philippe hires Arabella Courtenay to head up the charitable foundation he has established. Escaping a controlling marriage, Arabella is touched by his kindness and consideration. And very soon, she too is falling under his spell. Will Philippe complicate his life even further?
As he reflects on his life, he knows he will pay a price for his behaviour. For the way he has betrayed the love of his life …
The stunning sequel to First Born Son.
