Between glittering galas, family pressures, and the return of an old flame, Sophie found herself sidelined from her own life - and even her own wedding. Lucas thought love could survive on desire and loyalty alone. But when Sophie disappears, leaving behind a silence that shatters his world, he realizes the truth: love must be earned every day, with honesty and presence. In the months that follow, both are tested, changed, and haunted by what they lost - until a single, impossible moment offers a chance at redemption. Can love survive the fractures of betrayal and reclaim the hearts it almost lost?

Unable to endure the torment or the betrayal of the man she loved most, she left everything behind - her home, her city, her country - determined to rebuild herself. Eight years later, she returns not as the fragile girl she once was, but as a strong, confident doctor - cold, composed, and unbreakable.

As he struggles to win back her heart, she battles with the scars of her past. Can he truly earn her forgiveness after such betrayal? Will she ever trust him again - or will the walls she built around her heart keep him out forever? Come, witness their journey - of pain, redemption, and love reborn against all odds.

EXCERPT-- "Pay up, Julian!" Marcus slapped Julian on the back, a triumphant grin splitting his face. "I knew you couldn't resist. 100 pounds, right? Told you she'd fall for the 'sensitive bad boy' routine, hook, line, and sinker." Julian's back stiffened, a sudden, rigid posture. He turned slightly, and Ellie saw Marcus pressing a crisp 100-pound note into his hand, a smug, victorious smirk on his face. Her blood ran cold, freezing in her veins, turning to icy dread. *** *** Meet Eleanor "Ellie" Smith. Your average (?), shy, kind-hearted, slightly clumsy bookworm.

Durga never believed love was meant for her. In a world that judged her skin, silenced her emotions, and measured her worth by marriage proposals, she kept her heart locked away. But when fate ties her to Eshwar - a man who never wanted to marry - things begin to change. A story of pain, silence, and finding love in unexpected places.

I never believed in marriage. Not after growing up watching it tear my family apart. Wanting someone was easy. Loving someone was dangerous. But promising forever? That felt impossible. And then came Dean Ashford. He never asked for much; just me, just us, just a future he swore he'd protect with everything he had. And when he asked for that future-when he held out a ring with hands that were shaking-I did the one thing I never wanted to do. I walked away. He broke. I broke. And the next morning, when I finally found the courage to choose him-really choose him-I had no idea he'd spent the night destroying everything we ever were. I had no idea what I was walking into. I had no idea what he'd done. I thought the worst thing I'd ever feel was the fear of losing him. I was wrong. Because nothing prepares you for the moment the person you love looks at you with eyes full of secrets... Nothing prepares you for the truth that the one night you walked away was the one night he didn't. And now I have to decide if the love I built my world around can survive the one mistake that broke both of us.

"You don't have to feel that way," he whispered, his breath warm against her ear. "Let me take your mind off it." The sudden intimacy of his touch sent a shiver through Y/n, and she felt her pulse quicken. "Jimin..." she began, but her voice faltered as he tilted her chin up to meet his gaze. There was a smoldering intensity in his eyes, and she felt herself getting lost in it, despite the nagging doubt that still lingered at the back of her mind. "Trust me," Jimin murmured, his lips brushing against hers in a feather-light touch. "I won't hurt you." When a reckless bet puts Jimin on a collision course with Y/n, the one woman who refuses to fall for his charms, he finds himself fighting for more than just his pride. As they navigate betrayal, redemption, and an unexpected love that changes everything, Jimin must prove that some risks are worth taking-and that love is the ultimate gamble.
