Not all weddings end in vows. Some end in silence, secrets... and captivity.
Rose Sharma always believed in fairytales. At nineteen, she was content to live in the glow of her older sister Shanaya's spotlight-brilliant, beautiful, and destined for a perfect life. And when Shanaya was set to marry Kim Taehyung, the heir to a powerful empire, it seemed like the ending every girl dreamed of.
Until the bride vanished hours before the ceremony.
Left behind was a single note-and a trail of secrets that shattered everything Rose thought she knew.
Taehyung, once charming and adored, reveals a far darker truth. Fueled by wounded pride and a twisted need for control, he turns his fury toward Rose, convinced she helped Shanaya escape. The price? Her freedom.
What was supposed to be her sister's fairytale becomes Rose's waking nightmare-forced into an engagement she never agreed to, held captive behind locked doors, and caught in the crosshairs of a man who will do anything to protect his secrets.
She never said yes. But no one heard her say no.
Now, Rose must uncover what Shanaya ran from, navigate a web of lies and danger, and find a way to survive a world where power masks cruelty-and love may be the deadliest illusion of all.
The truth is just beginning to surface.
