Caspian Kai was used to winning. In business, in influence, and in life-he always came out on top. So when he fell for Elise, the woman whose presence once lit up every corner of his world, he thought the outcome was inevitable. But in a twist of fate and emotion, she chose someone else: Carter, the struggling artist with nothing to offer but an open heart.
In a single rainy night, Caspian lost the girl, the illusion of control, and a piece of himself.
But this isn't a story about heartbreak.
It's a story about what comes after.
