The high school Cupid, the matchmaker who helped dozens find their soulmates, now finds himself entirely alone. Eight years have passed since graduation, and everyone else has moved on. They are chasing dreams, building families, and discovering a profound happiness-the kind they never could have found in Eastwood. Everyone, that is, except for Dylan.
Dylan Dexwell is a shadow of the boy he used to be. The high school heartthrob who paired up his classmates with uncanny intuition has vanished. In his place stands a ruthless lawyer, using sharp intellect and biting wit to dominate the courtroom. His blunt, no-nonsense approach makes him both feared and admired, but it also leaves him completely isolated. And it is all because of love-or rather, a devastating lack of it.
His boyish charm has expired, replaced by a hardened exterior that radiates power and authority. Dylan's demeanor is now cold and calculating, driven by a singular obsession with control. Yet this transformation wasn't born out of ambition; it was forged in the fire of unrequited heartbreak.
Nearly a decade has passed since the trauma of Eastwood, but was that town really the root of his ruin? Or was it something far more personal? Externally, Dylan has everything he ever wanted: status, influence, and wealth. But a hollow ache remains. Deep down, he knows exactly what is missing-the one person he cannot bear to admit he still craves.
When that very person suddenly resurfaces, the carefully built ice around Dylan's heart begins to shatter. Why now? And how can he ever truly move on?
