Eleanor Ashford has always lived under the weight of expectation-a legacy carved from wealth, power, and unyielding tradition. At 22, she's on the cusp of freedom, chasing her own dreams in business school, even as her family prepares to bind her to a man she's never met.

When Ellie falls for a charming stranger in college, she believes she's found a love of her own choosing. But betrayal shatters her world, forcing her back into the gilded cage of an arranged marriage.

Enter Theodore Blackwood-the enigmatic, powerful heir to America's richest empire. Handsome, intelligent, and fiercely protective of his family's legacy, Theo is the unexpected force that challenges everything Ellie thought she wanted.

In a world where loyalty is currency and secrets lie beneath every smile, can Ellie break free from the past-and find love on her own terms?

"Being away from you was unbearable," Isaiah confessed. "I couldn't focus on anything," he took a pause before continuing "What happened to my letter? I hope it is not somewhere in the trash," Isaiah said playfully, though his eyes betrayed his seriousness. Susan remained silent, bowing her head. "Susan, answer me," Isaiah urged gently. Susan blushed and looked down, "You are such an idiot." "I agree with that," Isaiah admitted. "Me, coming here and waiting for you, it has to mean something," she said, looking away from him. "Hey, I might be an idiot, but I can still understand what you feel" "Then why don't you understand it without me having to say it outright?" --- In the bustling heart of New York City, Evelyn Mae entered the world on a crisp autumn day. Born into a middle-class family, Evelyn was the youngest of four siblings, with one brother and two sisters who adored her. Her siblings, all married and thriving in their own lives, often reminisced about their mischievous yet cherished childhood days together. Evelyn, being the baby of the family, was particularly doted upon. Growing up, Evelyn was the apple of her parents' eyes. Her mischievous antics were often met with gentle reprimands and warm smiles, for she brought an unparalleled joy to their lives but it soon came to an end when her parents died in an accident. One afternoon at her uncle's house, Evelyn sat at the kitchen table when a sudden realization struck her-she wanted to become a doctor. Determined to pursue her dream, she enrolled in medical school, sharing an apartment with her childhood best friend, Susan. They attended the same college and bonded over a few shared classes. Susan's unwavering support and their late-night talks kept Evelyn motivated through the grueling demands of medical school. Years later, Evelyn graduated with honors, her dream fulfilled, ready to embrace the future.

I crossed my arms. "Why would I do that?" "You tell me." I didn't answer. I looked at the books instead. My fingers touched the spine of one I couldn't name. I wasn't here to read. I had followed him in earlier. He didn't see me. Then he left. Now I was the one caught. He moved closer. "You've been quiet around me for weeks." "You've been busy packing," I said.
