When Antonia's mother remarries, fourteen year old Antonia remains in the only home she has ever known. What changes is the dynamic inside it. Elena Hayes, her older and strikingly beautiful step sister, enters their world slowly and with very little interest in becoming family. Elena is elegant, admired, and fake, and sharing the same home with her during visits feels more like a calculated rivalry than sisterhood.
The situation begins to worsen when Elena brings home her boyfriend, Logan Cruz. Logan is gentle and attentive, and his warmth gives Antonia a sense of safety she has never felt with Elena around. The feeling she has for him grows quickly and genuinely. It's not a childish crush. It's love that she feels in every part of her young heart. Logan sees her only as a kind and thoughtful girl, and the bond between them remains innocent on his side.
A single event tears the little peace they had apart, and Antonia is left carrying her feelings in silence as the years move forward. Logan becomes a memory she cannot forget, one she holds privately in the quietest corners of her life.
Years later, when Antonia and Logan cross paths again, she has grown into a confident woman with certainty, and emotional strength. Logan can no longer dismiss what exists between them, and the connection that once lived beneath the surface becomes impossible to ignore.
Elena has no intention of losing control over anything she believes belongs inside her sphere. She has always excelled at rivalry, and this time the stakes involve loyalty, pride, and love.
Two step-sisters. One man. A rivalry that began long before anyone understood the cost.
