Ichi Do Ha Ai Shitekuretanoni / Original Title: HIS FOREVER FAMILY (Harlequin De Izaia D 1845 Desire)

[Machine Translation] Liberty works as a secretary for Marcus, a wealthy CEO. She keeps her painful childhood and her origins in the back of her mind, and is happy to work for a boss she can trust. She even harbors a faint crush on him, but never imagines that her love will ever come true. He comes from a prestigious family, but he and I live in different worlds... One day, while jogging with Marcus, she found a newborn baby abandoned in a park. Liberty, who unknowingly held the child tenderly in her arms, reminded Marcus of himself, and he became aware of her as a woman for the first time, and they soon became close friends. This RITA Award-winning author presents a richly evocative portrait of love and emotional turmoil in this gem of a novel.
