Judith thought she’d won it all—her hero cop, her happily ever after. But love this fierce never comes without fallout.
Justin, once her protector, now punishes her with cold resentment, unable to forgive her fateful entanglement with Nicolas—the dangerously obsessive man who refuses to let her go. When Nicolas reaches out, Judith slips into a secret online affair, seeking comfort in the arms of the very man who shattered her life. But Nicolas is unraveling, spiraling into addiction, and clinging to the belief that Judith is his soulmate.
Justin discovers the affair and ends it with brutal finality. But Nicolas isn’t finished. He’ll risk everything—his sanity, her freedom, even his life—to claim the woman he believes was always meant to be his.
A luxury holiday in Mexico reunites Judith and Nicolas for one scorching afternoon, where he pleads with her to leave the alpha cop who’s breaking her spirit and run away with him. The triangle tightens. The stakes explode. And Judith is pushed to a breaking point that will leave everyone aching.
Justin can’t forgive. Nicolas won’t let go. Judith has wrecked everything. And just when it couldn’t get worse, her sister Lizzy makes her move—launching a twisted plan to steal Justin for herself.
