She abandoned her dream of gracing the ballerina stage—for him. She sacrificed her self-respect—for him. She lost sight of her true identity—for him.

The future that awaited her was a life trapped in the endless misery of a loveless marriage. So, decisively, she ended their relationship and walked away. What she didn’t expect was that in breaking free from Ryan, she had opened the door for Aiden to enter her life—a chance he had been waiting for.
