But when his husband of five years abandons them for a wealthy woman, Isaack's carefully constructed world crumbles, leaving him to pick up the pieces while protecting their six-year-old son from the fallout. Determined to create a stable life for Angel, Isaack throws himself into his restaurant and fatherhood, his heart safely lock. Then comes the annual Children's Hospital fundraiser, where fate introduces him to Jadziel Zayas, the charismatic Puerto Rican CEO of Zayas Enterprises. As Jadziel's steady presence and genuine care for both Isaack and Angel begin to melt the walls around Isaack's heart, he faces his greatest challenge: learning to trust again. With Angel's innocent wisdom, the warm embrace of Jadziel's sister Diana-and the healing power of love, Isaack discovers that sometimes the most beautiful dishes are created from life's broken ingredients. This is a story about second chances, chosen family, and the courage to believe in love again-even when it comes in unexpected ways. ---------- This story comes entirely from my imagination.
