Ivy Callahan spent three years burying the one man she never stopped loving. Then she crashed her car straight into his. Ivy has one job: keep other people's scandals off the front page. So when her fiancé, Julian Ashford, is caught leaving a hotel with another woman, she does what she does best — clean it up, smile for the cameras, and pretend her heart isn't breaking. Then she rear-ends a stranger's car outside the hotel and looks up into the eyes of Roman Ashford — the hockey legend she left without a word three years ago, and the one man on earth she never expected to be Julian's uncle. Roman never got over her. He's not about to lose her twice — especially not to his own nephew. As Julian's scandal spirals and the Ashford family closes ranks to protect their name, Ivy is trapped between a debt she didn't create, a fiancé who's already chosen someone else, and an ex who's done waiting quietly in the background. When the family matriarch offers her an impossible choice — marry Julian to save her father's company, or lose everything — Roman makes a vow of his own: he won't let her sacrifice herself for a debt again. But an old contract is about to surface — one with a signature on it that will blow the entire Ashford family apart, and force Ivy to choose not between two men, but between the life she was told to want and the one she actually does. The hockey star won't let his ex go. The question is whether she'll let herself be found.
