[Synopsis Title: When the Film Emperor Ex Comes Back]
Seven years after walking away from acting, Maya Moore returns home for one job-and walks straight into a scandal with the one man she should never face again. Ethan Kane is now the untouchable film emperor: cold, gorgeous, worshipped by millions, and rumored to be so aloof he might as well be celibate. Then one variety show, one loaded glance, and one badly edited episode turn Maya into public enemy number one.
Online, fans tear her apart. On set, sweet-faced superstar Nina Cole quietly tries to bury her. Off camera, Ethan acts like he can't stand Maya's existence-right up until the truth starts slipping through the cracks. Because the man treating her like a stranger is the same boy from her past, the same first love she left behind, and the same obsession she never fully escaped.
Maya has no interest in rejoining the entertainment industry's vicious games. She just wants to finish her work and leave. But when manipulated footage, old wounds, and buried feelings explode into a full-blown PR disaster, walking away stops being simple. Clearing her name could destroy careers. Ignoring Ethan could break what little control she has left.
He once let her go. This time, he follows her across the world.
