Maluena Roberts fled her hometown and her broken marriage four years ago, signing divorce papers without hesitation when her husband, Christopher Brown, chose to rekindle his relationship with his first love, Lauren Montague. Unbeknownst to him, Maluena was pregnant with twins. She moved overseas, raising her sons in secret and building a new life. Now, with her father on his deathbed, Maluena returns to take over his business. But coming home means confronting the ghosts of her past-and her ex-husband, who still doesn't know he's a father. As Maluena struggles to navigate the complex world of family legacies, power struggles, and rekindled tensions, she finds herself drawn into a whirlwind of jealousy, new romances, and even murder. What started as a return for family soon becomes a journey of survival, forcing her to ask: did she really leave behind a better life, or has she stepped back into a world more dangerous than she ever imagined? Secrets will unravel, and the truth is bound to come out-but at what cost?
