His Heart Returned Too Late

Zoe Holt has been the Holts' cherished daughter for 20 years until the true daughter shows up with a DNA report. That is when she realizes she's nothing but a stand-in swapped at birth.She packs her bag in humiliation and is ready to leave. But Alder Holt, her older brother who's always been cold and distant toward her, pulls her into his car that very night.Pinning her against the leather seat, he has her breaking down in tears three times over. Even when her voice is hoarse from the crying, he grips her waist and whispers in her ear several times over, "I've wanted to do this to you for years."That is when she understands that his years of detachment have been nothing but forced restraint.
