Longing and Legacy

Their families rule New York's high society. Their love could burn it to the ground.

Gossip Girl meets Romeo and Juliet in the second book in the internationally bestselling Westwell series.

Two months after walking away from Jessiah Coldwell, Helena Weston is haunted by the hardest choice of her life. Loving Jess was never going to be simple, and staying away was the only way to protect them both. But forgetting him has proven impossible. The only thing keeping Helena moving forward is her determination to uncover the truth about her sister's death, no matter how dangerous that search becomes.

When her investigation uncovers a revelation that could shatter everything Jess believes about his family and the night their siblings died, Helena has no choice but to reach out to him again. Jess is furious to learn how far she's pushed herself--and how much danger she may be in. Certain that Helena is risking her life, he insists on helping her, even though reopening the door between them threatens the fragile distance they fought to create.

Working together forces them back into each other's orbit, and as the truth edges closer, resisting each other becomes harder than letting go. As Helena and Jess dig deeper into what really happened that night, they uncover dangers that threaten not only their investigation, but everything they've sacrificed to protect. But although loving each other may be forbidden, walking away again could cost them far more than their hearts.
