Four years ago, Leila Cruz walked away from Tristian Seo, leaving behind the shattered pieces of their love and the life they had built together in Japan. Now, she's rebuilding her life in Seoul, juggling her dream of becoming a writer, raising her son, and working two jobs. She's finally finding her footing-until Tristian walks back into her world.
Tristian isn't the same man she left behind. Haunted by his past and entangled in the dangerous world of illegal boxing with Korean loan sharks, he's a man on the edge. But when his troubles lead him back to Leila's bar, he's forced to confront the one thing he thought he could leave behind-his love for her.
Their reunion is anything but simple. Secrets from the past linger between them, and new dangers threaten to pull them apart. As old flames reignite, Leila and Tristian must navigate a world of heartbreak, betrayal, and danger to find their way back to each other.
But love isn't always enough to fight the ghosts of the past-and sometimes, second chances come at a price.
