When Caia agreed to marry Angelo to save her dying father, she knew she was trading her heart for survival. Trapped in a cold, loveless marriage to a man whose heart belongs to someone else, she quietly battles not only rejection-but a silent illness that's slowly claiming her life. As her days grow shorter, Caia offers Angelo one final deal: one week of pretending he loves her, in exchange for his freedom. In a world where time is slipping, and love was never hers to keep, Caia sets out to leave behind not bitterness-but closure, for both of them. Even if it breaks her to do it with a smile.
