Months later, she returns as Lia Hart—a woman reborn, untouchable, and determined to never love again.

But when Ethan Black discovers she’s alive—and thriving without him—regret becomes his obsession.

Because now, she’s the one thing he can’t have back.

I was just eighteen when I mistook a business deal for a fairy tale, letting a schoolgirl crush blind me to the truth. My prince charming? He turned out to be more of a wolf in an Armani suit. Now, five years and a thousand broken pieces later, I've rebuilt myself into someone I barely recognize, a CEO, a survivor, and most importantly, a mother to my beautiful son Griffin. I thought I'd buried the naive girl who once dreamed in a garden. Apparently, the universe had other plans. My ex-husband's back, claiming he's changed and wanting a second chance.

They say love is sweeter the second time around, but can I trust it when betrayal wore the face of love once before? One thing's certain: I'm not that naive wife anymore. And this time, I'm playing for keeps.

D'aussi loin que je me souvienne, j'étais toujours amoureuse de Cassin Chauvin - le meilleur ami de mon frère, l'unique parrain de la mafia à Paris. Le soir de mon vingtième anniversaire, mon frère m'a promis une surprise. Je ne m'attendais pas à ce que cette surprise soit un Cassin très ivre et très docile. Une nuit d'insouciance. Un petit garçon. Cassin a accepté de m'épouser après l'accouchement. Mais le jour où j'ai donné naissance à Léo, Cassin n'a rien dit. Il a juste fait ses valises et a disparu pendant près de cinq ans. Puis il est revenu avec Alissa. Son premier amour. Et quand elle a vu Léo et moi, elle s'est enfuie et a disparu. Après ça, Cassin ne m'a plus quittée. Comme s'il essayait de devenir l'homme dont j'avais besoin depuis le début, comme si nous allions enfin commencer notre histoire. Mais les contes de fées sont des mensonges enveloppés de jolis papiers. Le jour du sixième anniversaire de Léo, nous allions dîner en voiture. Les freins ont lâché. La voiture a dérapé sur l'autoroute, les flammes léchant le moteur. Cassin est sorti. Puis il a verrouillé les portières. « Sans toi, Alissa serait encore à mes côtés. Maintenant, c'est à ton tour de souffrir. » À ce moment-là, j'ai enfin compris que Cassin ne m'avait jamais aimée. Quand j'ai rouvert les yeux, j'étais de retour à l'anniversaire de mes vingt ans. Cassin était dans mon lit, exactement là où je l'avais laissé dans le passé. Cette fois, je n'ai pas hésité. J'ai fui. Et en partant, j'ai passé l'appel que j'aurais dû faire pour la première fois. Celui à Alissa.
