Maxine Elira Isolde a daughter of a prominent political family, she was expected to follow the path laid out for her-proper, prim, and full of pressure. But she chose a different life: becoming a chef and putting up her own restaurant, Alira.
Maxine thought she finally had control over her life... until her family arranged her marriage to Caelan Rhys Velez. A brilliant engineer, CEO, and heir to a business empire-cold, calculated, and seemingly emotionless.
At first, they were strangers tied by duty. But slowly, through shared mornings, silent dinners, late-night confessions, and stolen glances, Maxine found herself falling.
Then came the heartbreak no one was ready for. Suddenly, love was no longer enough. Silence, grief, and unspoken pain threatened to consume them.
How do you hold on to love when the things you didn't say hurt more than the things you did?
