Summary
Six years ago, Sierra vanished from Cassius’s life without a word, leaving their relationship in tatters. Now, the man she abandoned has returned as a powerful Duke, not with anger, but with a shocking claim: *he* was the one abandoned, and he’s here to reclaim what was lost. Sierra is baffled—she was the one who ended things! Her carefully constructed peace is further shattered when Cassius encounters Hanael, her spirited five-year-old niece. Mistaking Hanael for their secret love child, Cassius declares his intent to be a father, only to be met with an unexpected outburst from the child herself: “You’re a bad man! You abandoned us!” Sierra is caught in a whirlwind of misunderstandings, a persistent ex-lover, and a niece whose dramatic flair is only making things worse. Can she untangle this chaotic web before her life is completely upended? Start reading chapter 1 to find out!
