The Lady Who Lived Twice

Isabelle Hartwell awakens one day before the wedding that once destroyed her life. Determined not to repeat her mistakes, she publicly admits her past lies and releases the man she once trapped into marriage—only to find herself cast out of society. Using her intelligence instead of manipulation, Isabelle rebuilds her life by transforming a failing Piccadilly bookshop into the intellectual heart of London. As her influence grows, powerful enemies—including a vindictive prince—attempt to destroy her reputation once again. But in her second life, Isabelle is no longer the woman who sought control through deceit—she is a woman determined to rewrite her fate.
