She was a rising star in the world of fashion, a model with a face everyone recognized. But behind the glamour, her life wasn't as perfect as it seemed. For years, her childhood best friend had been obsessed with her-an obsession that turned dangerous when she rejected his relentless proposals. Her refusal wasn't just a blow to his pride; it was a spark that ignited his determination to have her at any cost.

When rejection wasn't enough to stop him, he crossed the line, forcing her into an engagement against her will. Desperate to escape his clutches and regain her freedom, she did the unthinkable-she gave up her face, her identity, and the life she had known. A new face. A new name. A chance to disappear. But fate wasn't done with her yet.

On the run and terrified, she crosses paths with a man-strong, brooding, and rough around the edges. He's everything she never expected: her savior and her jailer. But her new face hides a cruel irony-she now bears the features of his ex, the woman who shattered his heart. Despite his mistrust, he protects her, leading her into an unknown world of survival, longing, and a slow-burning desire neither of them can ignore.

But the ghosts of their pasts refuse to rest. When her obsessive ex-friend resurfaces with his twisted love, her fragile new life is shattered once more. And as secrets unravel and truths come to light, she must decide: Can she trust the man who saved her to also mend her broken heart? Or will the past consume her before she can find a future?
