To be someone's first love is unforgettable.
But to be their last... is everything.
Scarlett Anderson is grace wrapped in strength-brilliant, beautiful, and determined to carve her own path. But behind her soft smile lies a secret too heavy to share. She's built walls around her heart, believing that success-not love-is all she needs.
Alexander Black has it all: charm, power, and a smile that melts hearts. But beneath the polished exterior is a man who doesn't believe in love. Burned by betrayal, he lives for the thrill, not forever.
When fate brings Scarlett and Alexander together, sparks fly-fiery, dangerous, undeniable. But love doesn't come without sacrifice. And as their worlds collide, long-buried truths surface, threatening to destroy the fragile bond between them.
Because love isn't just passion.
It's true. It's loyalty.
And sometimes... It's lies.
