Edna Johnson is a young mother who's had to learn survival the hard way. Abandoned by her parents and betrayed by the man she once loved, she's determined to give her child the love and stability she never had-even if it means standing alone.
Alex Laurent is a powerful billionaire who built his empire with ruthless precision. He doesn't believe in second chances-especially not when it comes to the woman who once shattered his trust. Love is a distraction he can't afford.
What could they possibly have in common?
A past that refuses to stay buried.
A child who connects them in ways neither expected.
And a storm of secrets that could destroy everything they thought they knew about love, loyalty, and themselves.
