Xavier Maximo didn't want her jewelry, her devotion, or the gift she had carefully wrapped for him. He wanted his freedom. He wanted the woman who had returned from his past. Left with nothing but an engagement ring and a secret growing inside her, Aristia vanished into the mist of Aetheria Crest. Now twenty-eight, Aristia has built a fortress of a life. She is the "Boss Mama" to Arthur and Ariana, her brilliant, wavy-haired twins who believe their father is a faraway superhero. She is the secret powerhouse behind Sweet Symphony, the most successful bakery in the heart of New York City. She has found peace in the silence. She has found strength in the soil. But a symphony is never truly finished. When Xavier walks into her bakery, he doesn't see the woman who raised his heirs in a house on a hill. He sees a ghost from his past working a shift at a register. He sees a woman he thinks he can "save" with the pity she never asked for. As the man who broke her heart begins to haunt her present, Aristia is forced to walk a razor's edge. Will the truth of the gift he never opened finally bridge the gap between them? Or is some broken glass meant to stay shattered?
