Used book – The Heir, Carrie Alexander, Alexandra Teissier

A motorcycle races through town like a wild horse – and Sophie immediately understands that the man she had stopped waiting for has returned. What is he looking for so long after, this bad boy she adored but who betrayed her, abandoning her without even saying goodbye when he fled the town that rose up against him? What new scandal does he bring, this rebel whom his own family suspects is the result of an adulterous affair? Overwhelmed, torn between anger and distress, Sophie wants to cling to the hypothesis that Luke has only returned to assert his inheritance rights despite his uncertain origins. Yet, she fears even more that a deeper, purely instinctive motivation pushes him to return to the traces of their broken passion: Joe, the son she gave birth to exactly nine months after Luke's departure, and of whose existence, logically, he should be unaware.
