Facade

Fa§ade is a contemporary drama that explores the razor's edge between truth and performance in the high-stakes worlds of luxury business and law. At its heart are Marcus Vance, a self-made millionaire who built his transportation empire from the ground up, and Zahra Hayes, a brilliant corporate lawyer whose life is defined by precision and control. Both are masters of their domains, but struggle with the vulnerability that comes with genuine connection.

When Marcus, haunted by past betrayals and the isolating nature of success, chooses to hide his true identity behind the fa§ade of a humble driver, he meets Zahra-a woman who craves authenticity but is wary of the risks that come with letting her guard down. Their chance encounter sparks a chemistry that is both electric and fraught with tension, as each tries to navigate the minefield of trust, ambition, and the fear of being used.

As their relationship deepens, Marcus's carefully constructed lie threatens to unravel everything they've built together. Zahra, ever the investigator, senses the gaps in his story and must decide whether to confront the truth or protect her own heart. The story unfolds through sharp dialogue, intimate moments, and the contrasting perspectives of two people who are both drawn to and terrified by the possibility of something real.

Set against the backdrop of Uptown Charlotte's glittering skyline and the relentless pace of corporate life, Fa§ade is a tale of ambition, love, and the cost of honesty. It asks: Can you truly love someone if you're not willing to show them your real self? And what happens when the performance ends and the truth comes out?

With immersive scenes, witty banter, and a cast of memorable friends and rivals, this novel delivers a fresh take on modern romance and the struggle to reconcile who we are with who we pretend to be. Perfect for readers who crave emotional depth, clever twists, and characters who feel as real as the secrets they keep.
