Careless Whispers
She's falling in love with the one man she can't trust...

Elaina Robidoux knows how people view her: coldhearted, ambitious, ruthless. But it doesn't matter. Running the family business is all she's ever wanted and she's so close she can almost taste it...until her father fires her and hires her nemesis-arrogant, unflappable Alex Tyson. Elaina may be hurt but she refuses to be defeated, so she throws herself into creating a business of her own. But she never dreamed that to close her first deal, she'd need Alex's help...

Alex understands the power of a family legacy better than most and the last thing he wanted was to take that from Elaina. Her beauty and fierce strength are undeniable, but there's a softer side that no one but him seems to see. She's been taught that emotions are a liability, yet one impulsive kiss starts a chain reaction that neither of them wants to stop. But can love ignite-and survive-when secrets and loyalties collide?

“[An] exceptional tale of forbidden love.” -Publishers Weekly, starred review, on Forbidden Promises

Editorial Reviews

From the Publisher

PRAISE FOR CARELESS WHISPERS

"Enemies to lovers is a favorite trope of contemporary romance writers these days. Some books fly and some books don’t. However, in Careless Whispers, you can be assured that Williams’ skill as a writer makes you believe in her protagonists’ ability to overcome their differences and love deeply." —Frolic, a "Book of the Week" pick

PRAISE FOR SYNITHIA WILLIAMS

The perfect escape. Forbidden Promises is a deeply felt, engrossing, soapy romance that manages to both luxuriate in its angst, while also interrogating something far more wide-reaching and universal than the admittedly sexy taboo appeal of its central conceit.”—Entertainment Weekly on Forbidden Promises

“Brimming with intrigue and sizzling attraction.”—Woman’s World on Forbidden Promises


“Emotions, relationships and business are tangled in this soap opera-esque tale, and readers will find themselves unable to look away from Williams’ well-drawn and larger-than-life characters. It’s impossible not to enjoy this entertaining glimpse into a world of wealth, political ambition and familial loyalties.”—BookPage on Forbidden Promises

“A romance for readers looking for equal parts passion and family drama.”—Kirkus Reviews on Forbidden Promises

“Fans of Elle Wright and Jamie Pope will be seduced by this charming and passionate family saga.”—Booklist on Forbidden Promises

“Politics, passion, and family frama combine to make a deliciously soapy second-chance, brother’s best-friend romance. Readers of Alisha Rai’s Forbidden Hearts series or Reese Ryan’s Engaging the Enemy will be tantalized and surprised by the many twists and turns.”—Library Journal on Forbidden Promises

Elaina Robidoux has one goal in mind: to take over the family business. She's had to tamp down her emotions, build up walls around her heart, and let cool ambition fuel her days. However, when her father removes her from the business and replaces her with Alex Tyson, her workplace rival, she's forced to change her plans. Elaina begins to build her own business, but she'll have to work with Alex if she wants to see it prosper. Alex never wanted to take Elaina's job or find himself in the middle of her family dispute. He respects Elaina's passion and knows there's more to her than her sometimes abrasive exterior. After mounting tensions between Elaina and Alex results in a passionate kiss, business and pleasure blend into a heady combination. This enemies-to-lovers contemporary romance is the third book in Williams's "Jackson Falls" series, but it can stand alone. VERDICT Readers who crave a romance set amidst family drama and high-stakes business deals will find their perfect match.—Shanel Slater, Marion P. L., IA
