Tate never believed in weddings, much less in happily-ever-afters. After witnessing her parents' marriage crumble into bitterness, she promised herself she would never walk down the same path. But fate has a cruel sense of irony. In a twist she never imagined, Tate finds herself bound by marriage to Roz Galleros-an enigmatic man whose charm is as devastating as his cruelty.
Roz is everything she swore to avoid: hot and cold, ruthless yet magnetic, a man haunted by the ghost of his first love. No matter how much Tate tries to build a life with him, the shadow of his past threatens to suffocate whatever fragile bond they could create. To Roz, Tate is a duty, a replacement, a woman forced into a role she never asked for. To Tate, Roz is both her torment and the one person who makes her heart betray her resolve.
As secrets unravel and betrayals come to light, Tate and Roz must decide if love can truly grow from the ashes of resentment-or if they are destined to destroy each other before they can heal.
A story of heartbreak, longing, and second chances: Can two broken souls find forever in each other, or are they doomed to repeat the cycle of lost love?
