He Chose Her Anyway

Book One of The Richmond Consequences Series. Read this book first.

Malachi Vale knows how to earn trust at BridgePoint Richmond. In his private life, he has built two versions of peace.

Aaliyah is intentional, accomplished, and tired of asking for clarity. Nyla is warm, familiar, and willing to accept the parts of Malachi he does not want examined. He keeps both women close until an anonymous photograph exposes what he has been hiding.

Aaliyah walks away.

Nyla moves in.

When Nyla’s connection to a company seeking BridgePoint opportunities forces Malachi to disclose their relationship, the favors he considered harmless begin to look like preferential access. Then the messages become more personal. The files become more dangerous. And the woman he chose starts knowing things she should never have been able to see.

Malachi is given chance after chance to tell the truth. But when honesty threatens the relationship, the career, and the version of himself he wants to protect, he makes the decision that will define everything that follows.

He knows what she has done.

He chooses her anyway.

This is Book One of a connected two-book story. It ends on a cliffhanger and continues immediately in The One He Should’ve Left Alone.
