Gigi has always wanted one thing she could never have-Landon. Quiet. Unshakeable. Untouchable. For years, she's been the punchline of whispered jokes and cruel labels. Promiscuous. Reckless. A sl*t. A woman who doesn't know how to be loved, only used. And maybe that's how she learned to survive-by owning the brand the world burned into her skin. Until Landon. For one fleeting moment, he sees her. Wants her. Holds her like she's more than a rumor. But when tragedy strikes their circle of friends-Mark and Rachel's marriage imploding under the weight of betrayal-Gigi finds herself accused of the unthinkable. Manipulation. Infidelity. Of being the reason another woman's life fell apart. And this time, the voices aren't just strangers. They're her friends. Including the man she loves most. Landon turns on her, his words cutting deeper than any lie ever could. Whore. Homewrecker. Mistake. And with him goes the last piece of her she ever thought was worthy of mercy. But when the truth surfaces-when the lies unravel-can Gigi escape the brand that's defined her for years? Can she ever believe Landon that she's the woman beyond her body-worthy of a breaking heart?
