Tangled By Fate (Book Two)

This is Book Two of the By-Fate Series.
Each novel in the series tells its own complete love story within Master Ling’s interconnected world.

She was sent on assignment to assess the gravely ill matriarch. 

But nothing about the case was simple. 

When she discovers the matriarch isn’t dying by fate but by design, she agrees to pose as the heir’s fiancée to keep suspicion at bay while she treats the old woman. 

It should have been straightforward. One lie. Six months. A cinch.

Except nothing about the heir is predictable. Brilliant, relentless, and far too compelling to resist, he schemes to turn the ruse into truth. Whether in public or behind closed doors, tension ignites as he plots to make the pretend engagement real—and she slowly learns just how determined he is.

As they navigate hidden threats and race to unravel who wants the matriarch dead, fragments of a long-buried past surface. Secrets she never knew and a lineage she never suspected begin to emerge, forcing her to confront a truth that changes everything.

One lie brought her into his orbit.
One truth could tear everything apart.
Before either of them realized it, their fates were already entangled.
And some knots aren't meant to be undone.
