When love is tested by obsession, who will walk away unscathed-and who will burn?
Aurélie SantosLima-Bandini has everything- beauty, money, and the man everyone swears is too good for her. Malachi Tavarez has been her anchor, her adventure, her safe place. Malachi thought loyalty would protect them. Instead, it leaves him torn between love and pity.
When he proposes, the world sees a fairytale, but Aurélie sees the cracks no one else notices.
And then there's Lenora Hayes-sweet, fragile, haunted. She shouldn't matter. But she's everywhere. In Malachi's life. In Aurélie's fears. In places Aurélie swore only she belonged. And Lenora thought fate was on her side. But fate has teeth.
As the wedding of the year draws closer, obsession collides with loyalty, love battles insecurity, and one uninvited guest threatens to turn vows into ashes.
