Queen of Her Own Illusion

When real estate tycoon Theodore Tate returns to his hometown, he crosses paths with Dahlia Denton—a poor but determined girl who insists on going to college despite her parents' objections. At his mother's urging, Theodore funds Dahlia's education, never imagining she would mistake his kindness for love. Convinced she belongs by his side as the future matriarch of the Tates, Dahlia lets arrogance guide her, only to realize her folly when it's far too late.
