On the day of my wedding anniversary, I was cleaning my house when I found a picture album. As it turned out, my husband had been religiously taking pictures with the girl of his dreams every year on this precise date. He had been doing it since he was forty years old and he was now sixty years old. His hair had progressed from a jet black to a faded white and yet, he kept up the tradition. There was a written message in his handwriting at the back of the picture that read, “Eternal Love.” Since he doesn't love me, I will no longer bother washing his clothes and cooking for him. I will no longer care for his children and grandchildren. I may have foolishly wasted half of my life, but it was not too late to make a change.

Aria James thought she had her life figured out—small-town survival, a controlling boyfriend she pretends to love, and a future she stopped dreaming about a long time ago. But when her car breaks down and the only man to answer the call is the boy who broke her heart and hardened his own—Kade fucking Calloway—everything she thought she knew goes up in flames. Childhood enemies, grown too bitter, too bruised, and too damn drawn to each other to stay apart. Every encounter between Aria and Kade is a battleground—sharp words, hot glares, and enough tension to burn the whole damn town down. He’s everything she’s sworn to hate. She’s everything he’s tried to forget. But hate has a fine, fucking line, princess. And once they cross it, there’s no going back. Small towns remember everything. Secrets are currency. And love? Love is the most dangerous game of all.

Elle avait tout pour briller : un talent rare, un avenir prometteur, une lumière que personne ne pouvait ignorer. Mais par amour, elle a tout sacrifié. Pour lui, elle s'est effacée. Pour lui, elle a renoncé à ses rêves. Pendant cinq ans, elle est devenue l'épouse silencieuse, discrète, transparente. Celle qui attend patiemment un regard, un geste, un mot tendre qui ne vient jamais. Il ne l'a jamais vraiment aimée. Elle n'était qu'un réconfort, un visage familier en attendant le retour de l'autre. Quand son ex-petite amie refait surface, il la rejette sans hésitation. « Divorçons. Tu n'as jamais été qu'un substitut. » Mais la douleur lui révèle l'horreur : les « vitamines » qu'il lui donnait chaque jour n'étaient que des pilules contraceptives. Il lui a volé bien plus que son temps. Il lui a volé son choix. Elle part sans un cri, sans une larme. Et des années plus tard, elle renaît. Brillante. Libre. Accomplie. Lui ? Il regrette. Il la cherche. Il veut la reconquérir. Mais comment rattraper celle qu'on a laissée partir… quand elle n'a plus aucune raison de revenir ?

The day my brother, Chester Rodney, came to the orphanage to take me home, my boyfriend Dominic Huxley looked at me coldly and said, "If you choose to acknowledge your birth family, we're over." I knew he had his pride—he could never accept the difference in our social standing. So, for him, I turned my back on the family I had yearned for my whole life. In the decades that followed, I toiled without complaint, saving every cent to help him rise to success. By the time I was not yet fifty, overwork had worn me down. Lying on my deathbed, my breathing shallow and weak, I watched Dominic on television. He was now an acclaimed scientist, just awarded the nation's highest research honor. Tears welled in his eyes as he thanked another woman. "All these years," he said, "I never felt worthy of Alicia. But now, maybe I can use this award as the prologue to a love I've owed her for decades." The "Alicia" he spoke of was the woman mistakenly switched with me at birth—the false heiress the Rodney family raised as their own. The camera zoomed out. Alicia Rodney stood radiant, graceful, and perfectly preserved by years of luxury, blushing as she accepted the trophy. "I waited for you for decades," she said sweetly, "but marriage is still something I'll need to ask my brother about." Chester, who had long taken over the family, looked at her with an indulgent tenderness tinged with something unspoken. "I was adopted by our uncle back then for one reason—to protect Alicia. Making the only princess of the Rodney family happy has always been my life's mission." Only then did I realize—everything I thought I had chosen freely, every sacrifice I made without regret, was nothing but a trap, carefully woven by two men, all for Alicia. The betrayal pierced my heart. I died without peace. But when I opened my eyes again, I was back on the very day Chester came to take me home from the orphanage. I glanced past the two men eyeing me with subtle disdain. Without hesitation, I stepped into the car. "Take me home," I said. This time, I'd send whoever stole my life back to the gutter they slithered from.
