Aurora Sinclair never believed in fairytales. As a brilliant surgeon, her world was built on precision, logic, and control-until fate ripped it all away. When her best friend, Celeste, begs her to take her place in an arranged marriage, Aurora finds herself walking down the aisle with Nico Laurent, a man she barely knows.
Nico, a hopeless romantic and sought-after wedding planner, always dreamed of a love story that felt like magic. But marrying Aurora-a woman who sees love as a liability-was never part of his plan. Now bound by a marriage neither of them wanted, they must navigate a life together, battling clashing ideals, unspoken desires, and an undeniable pull neither can resist.
Things only get more complicated when Daniel Lancaster, Aurora's ex, returns-unraveling old wounds and reigniting unresolved emotions. And in the shadows, Celeste Moreau and Adrian Vale, Nico's enigmatic best friend, struggle with a love they refuse to acknowledge.
With hearts tangled in a web of duty, longing, and unexpected passion, Aurora and Nico must ask themselves.
Are they truly colliding fates, or were they meant to crash into each other all along?
