My name is Maya, and I'm not the same girl I was a month ago. 

There is an emptiness I carry around in my chest now. A broken heart caused by grief. There are also dark nights where I have trouble breathing as I feel the heavy weight of loss rushing through my veins, painful moments where I can remember my entire being scream in agony as I held onto my father's cold, lifeless hand. 

Then there is always a hero to every story, isn't there? A hero who I despised from the moment he opened his mouth. His name is Alexander. 

He is my inevitable I never expected to find. The one my broken heart leads me to. His existence, his touch, everything he did to make my pain bearable will leave a mark on me forever. 

Yet, I know that when I'm gone, he'll only remember me as a fading memory.    


We have a powerful, overbearing, alpha millionaire in this book.

We also have a strong, determined, good woman.

We do have the pleasure of reading super unimaginably sexy scenes, as well.

So, one would wonder..Yeah, pretty much the same..

Right? WRONG!

Lost Prelude is a breathtaking, heart stopping story that will blow your minds away!

Alexander is much more than a sexy, rich man. He has a deep emotional inner world that I cannot wait to discover! He is kind yet rude. He gives everything and nothing to Maya. He is everything and nothing to Maya.

Most alphas we read about in recent books aren’t very deep and they don’t have layer after layer. They’re basically what they seem to be. We still love them, don’t get me wrong, but there’s nothing earth shattering in their stories, with quite a few exceptions, of course. But, you must have noticed that if a book is very very sexy, then the guy is not too deep. I don’t know how else to describe it.

But Alexander seems to have this aura of mystery around him, even though we know more about him than Maya! I loved that about him!

Maya is a truly remarkable woman. I have sympathized so much and so intensely with her that I left like what she felt. I cried when she cried (I’M NOT KIDDING YOU). I felt relieved when she did.

Ella Maise’s writing is outstanding!!! You usually get to read good stories and those stories are often well written. But this?

Lost Prelude is an excellently written story that you will absolutely adore!!! It’s quickly become one of my favorite books and the series, well...I CANNOT WAIT FOR THE NEXT BOOK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Alex & Maya, I wish you were together to celebrate your 5 Amazing Stars!!!!!!!! Until then, I will celebrate with Ella while begging her for the sequel!


Excerpt

My hands trembling on his hard chest, I opened my mouth, and the words just tumbled out before I could stop myself. “Maybe at another time this could’ve turned into something.” “I believe it’s already something, Maya.” “Yeah…” He was right. It was already something. But it wasn’t something that would be enough. Not for me. Not when he had someone else in his heart. Not when I couldn’t be the one he needed, wanted. Craved even. “Maybe it could have been something more, then.” “Yes. Maybe,” he murmured and brushed a gentle kiss on both of my closed eyelids. The act was so tender that it hurt my heart, and I was forced to close my eyes again. Tighter this time. Tomorrow, I’ll get over you, Alexander Ross. As soon as I’m on that plane, I’ll get over you,” I said breathlessly. His hands froze on my thighs, and I opened my eyes. He couldn’t even meet my gaze. “What else would you like to do tonight?” he asked instead. I forced a smile on my lips. We had reached the end of my dream. “I think I’m done for the night. I have to get up early tomorrow.” I got up from his lap—ignoring the hands that were trying to hold me down. The frown I came to love so much appeared on his face again. I was going to miss everything about this man.

About the Author

Ella Maise 

I'm an avid reader. Therefore, a big dreamer. I love nothing more than to escape real life to find those very few magical moments in a book. I love how it has the power of stealing your worries away, putting a smile on your face, and of course sometimes making you crush on fictional characters. I can't even begin to describe how exciting it is to give life to new characters and fall for them. It's definitely a different kind of addiction. I'm still searching for my own happy ending. Until that happens, I'll live vicariously through my own characters.
