Lies, betrayals, false accusations, hunger and thirst for money and power; In the middle of it all is Leticia.

Some years later after many tragic events, Leticia has been able to pick little pieces of her life. Now she's back; not to revenge but to know why the strange accusation was laid on her before. 

Unfortunately, another series of disastrous events awaits her: she must be willing to either fight or give in. And giving in meant losing herself to the thirst for revenge in the process.

A family that loathed her very existence, an arranged marriage to a very indifferent and cold man, and to crown it all, two miscarriages in three years. Nothing else could go wrong, right? Or so she thought...

Yaki has kept her secret buried for years. Everyone thinks they know why she turned down Ekene-the perfect man, the unforgettable ex-to marry someone else. But the truth is darker, messier, and far more dangerous than anyone imagines. When Ekene suddenly reappears, the memories she tried to bury come rushing back. He was charm wrapped in perfection, but behind the glitter was pride, silence, and a love too fragile to survive reality. Now, through this confession, Yaki reveals what really happened-why she walked away, and the price she paid for choosing safety over desire.
