I was packing to move in with the man I loved when a knock on the door changed everything. It was my ex-husband, Tom—the man who had broken me. He had a desperate request: the woman he left me for had died, leaving him alone with their daughter, Ava. He needed my help.
Seeing Ava stirred something deep inside me, a longing I thought I had buried. But as I grew closer to her, I discovered Tom’s real motive—securing Ava’s inheritance by having a partner.
Heartbroken, I left, realizing where my heart truly belonged. As I raced through the city, hoping to fix my mistake, I found Eric waiting for me in the rain—just like he always had.
