LOGINOne night. One kiss. One unforgettable love that time couldn’t erase. Phillian Zodiac has spent ten years searching for the woman who slipped through his fingers after a single night of passion. A free-spirited fisherman bound to the tides of Alcaraz, he never expected her to return — and certainly not like this. Therese Cataley "Calley" El Mundo vanished a decade ago, running from a deadly diagnosis and a broken past. Now a successful pediatrician, she returns home only to find herself trapped once again — this time by a family desperate to claim her fortune at any cost.
