Soft As A Petal

In 2016, Isabelle Gauthier's career was on an uphill climb. She'd walked twenty-two shows that year alone and 2017 had a lot in store for the brunette bombshell. So it was a surprise to the world and she announced her retirement at only twenty-five years old. The news was unexpected, especially for Vincent Carter, the music mogul whose heart had been captivated by Isabelle's sweet smile, dream-filled gaze, and mouth that left him with one final kiss before she left him behind, confused and heartbroken.
