Ava: Vor neun Jahren habe ich etwas Schreckliches getan. Es war nicht meine beste Stunde, aber ich sah eine Gelegenheit, den Mann zu bekommen, den ich seit meiner Kindheit geliebt habe, und ich habe sie ergriffen. Jetzt, Jahre später, bin ich es leid, in einer lieblosen Ehe zu leben. Ich möchte uns beide aus einer Ehe befreien, die niemals hätte geschlossen werden dürfen. Man sagt, wenn man etwas liebt, soll man es loslassen... Es war an der Zeit, ihn gehen zu lassen. Ich weiß, dass er mich niemals lieben wird und dass ich nie seine Wahl sein werde. Sein Herz wird immer ihr gehören. Und trotz meiner Sünden verdiene ich es, geliebt zu werden. Rowan: Vor neun Jahren war ich so verliebt, dass ich kaum noch klar sehen konnte.

Die einzige Frage ist jetzt: Wer ist die Richtige? Ist es das Mädchen, in das ich mich vor Jahren Hals über Kopf verliebt habe? Oder ist es meine Ex-Frau, die Frau, die ich nie wollte, aber heiraten musste?
