Banished from the Arnault legacy, she's thrown into a world where she has to fend for herself, for the first time ever. Now juggling her teacher training and a part-time job at a café, Daphne is determined to rebuild her life on her own terms. But letting go of her past isn't so simple.

Riley, the one person who made her feel alive, is still hurting from the secrets and lies that drove them apart.

As Daphne and Riley's paths cross again, their unresolved feelings surface, and with them, a chance at rekindling their love-if they can overcome the scars of betrayal.

Meanwhile, Monaco is in turmoil. The mysterious disappearance of King Evian and the secrets lurking behind the Grimaldi palace walls threaten to unravel everything. With Vincent plotting in the shadows, Daphne is drawn into a dangerous conspiracy she can't escape.

Love, power, and loyalty will be tested in ways Daphne never imagined. As she fights for her own happiness, she must decide who she truly is-and who she's willing to fight for.

In this captivating sequel, Daphne's journey of self-discovery and love collides with a royal mystery that could change everything. Will she reclaim her life, or will the secrets of the past pull her under?
