**She was ready to end it all.** **He stopped to save a stranger.** A marriage born from guilt, not love. A girl too broken to believe in dreams. A man still mourning a love he never truly had. But even broken hearts speak. And sometimes, salvation wears the face of a stranger. Sometimes, the most unexpected bonds... heal the deepest wounds. "Not all love stories are written in fairy tales. Some are written in the scars of survival."
She was just a teenager when the world showed her its darkest side. Broken and scared, she built walls so high, she swore no one would ever get close—especially not a man. But life had other plans. Forced into a marriage with a stranger, she stepped into a world she didn’t choose and didn’t want. He wasn’t what she expected. He was patient where her past had been cruel, kind where life had been harsh. Slowly, he began to chip away at the walls around her heart, showing her that maybe—just maybe—not all men are the same. Just when she starts to believe she might deserve happiness, her world flips upside down. Two heartbreaking truths shake everything she’s ever known. And him—the man she thought she could trust? His betrayal cuts deeper than anything she’s ever faced. Now, she’s left standing at a crossroads. Can she fight through the pain and hold on to the love she’s found? Will her past always haunt her, or can she finally let it go? And most of all, will he love her for who she is, broken pieces and all? 💎 **Start reading now—because this is a story that might just feel a little like your own.** 💎 **Themes:** 👩🎤 **Boss Lady** - Rider, Baddie, Fighter. 🤵♂️ **Business Mafia** - Rider, Calm, Chef (for his wife) and her all-time healer.
