The Undercover Heiress And Her Audacious Fake

On her first morning at Campbell Global, a new hire named Evelyn Ward posts a photograph of a seventy-million-dollar waterfront purchase agreement to the company-wide channel, then claims she took her mother's maiden name and begs everyone to keep her identity quiet. The floor erupts in groveling, and Nora's husband Simon, a man who counts every grocery dime, humiliates himself courting Evelyn's favor.

Nora recognizes the deed: the gated estate on Lake Washington is the one her father, Chairman Arthur Campbell, gave her for her twenty-fifth birthday, its registry number ending in her own birth date. Working entry-level under her mother's maiden name was her father's condition before she inherits the empire. When Nora asks which cove the villa sits on and proposes a housewarming, Evelyn's smile freezes and her excuses begin.

Surrounded by colleagues who call her jealous and small-minded, Nora holds the one fact none of them suspect.
