My life was a meticulously groomed arena, flawless and secure, all thanks to Ethan Blackwood. He rescued me, an orphaned girl clutching a lead rope and a trembling colt, after the fire took my parents and everything else. He was my protector, my world. I believed he loved me unconditionally. Then, the faint, expensive scent of Isabelle Thorne' s jasmine perfume clinging to his suit. A physical manifestation of the lie he lived. I pulled away from his embrace, the disgust a physical thing in my throat. He wasn' t just unfaithful; he saw me merely as a "talented little charity case," a prized pet. The final blow came not from him, but from his perfect, polished mistress. Isabelle Thorne herself sought me out, her cold smile dripping venom. She mocked my past, confirmed Ethan' s dismissal of me, then, with a sneer, snatched my mother' s sunstone locket from my neck, deliberately breaking its delicate chain. It fell to the dusty stable floor, mirroring my shattered heart. How could I have been so blind? So utterly devoted to a man who saw me as nothing more than a plaything, a controllable asset? The humiliation burned, making me feel physically sick. My mother' s locket, my last tangible link, lay shattered like my trust, like my perception of my former savior. I scrubbed my skin raw, desperate to wash away his touch, his scent, his betrayal. I fled to Serenity Peak, determined to heal and find myself. But my quiet retreat detonated into a fierce quest for justice when a kind vet mended my broken locket. He revealed a hidden compartment, and inside lay my mother' s secret journal, detailing not only the lost art of breeding Sunstone Stallions, but hinting at a ruthless man who coveted their work, a man who haunted their lives. My escape was no longer just about healing; it became a quest to unravel a terrifying truth and reclaim everything I had lost.

Introduction

My life was a meticulously groomed arena, flawless and secure, all thanks to Ethan Blackwood.

He rescued me, an orphaned girl clutching a lead rope and a trembling colt, after the fire took my parents and everything else.

He was my protector, my world. I believed he loved me unconditionally.

Then, the faint, expensive scent of Isabelle Thorne' s jasmine perfume clinging to his suit.

A physical manifestation of the lie he lived.

I pulled away from his embrace, the disgust a physical thing in my throat. He wasn' t just unfaithful; he saw me merely as a "talented little charity case," a prized pet.

The final blow came not from him, but from his perfect, polished mistress.

Isabelle Thorne herself sought me out, her cold smile dripping venom.

She mocked my past, confirmed Ethan' s dismissal of me, then, with a sneer, snatched my mother' s sunstone locket from my neck, deliberately breaking its delicate chain. It fell to the dusty stable floor, mirroring my shattered heart.

How could I have been so blind? So utterly devoted to a man who saw me as nothing more than a plaything, a controllable asset? The humiliation burned, making me feel physically sick.

My mother' s locket, my last tangible link, lay shattered like my trust, like my perception of my former savior.

My world revolved around Jax Harding, my older brother's captivating rockstar friend. From sixteen, I adored him; at eighteen, I clung to his casual promise: "When you're 22, maybe I'll settle down." That offhand comment became my life's beacon, guiding every choice, meticulously planning my twenty-second birthday as our destiny. But on that pivotal day in a Lower East Side bar, clutching my gift, my dream exploded. I overheard Jax' s cold voice: "Can't believe Savvy's showing up. She' s still hung up on that stupid thing I said." Then the crushing plot: "We' re gonna tell Savvy I' m engaged to Chloe, maybe even hint she' s pregnant. That should scare her off." My gift, my future, slipped from my numb fingers. I fled into the cold New York rain, devastated by betrayal. Later, Jax introduced Chloe as his "fiancée" while his bandmates mocked my "adorable crush"-he did nothing. As an art installation fell, he saved Chloe, abandoning me to severe injury. In the hospital, he came for "damage control," then shockingly shoved me into a fountain, leaving me to bleed, calling me a "jealous psycho." How could the man I loved, who once saved me, become this cruel and publicly humiliate me? Why was my devotion seen as an annoyance to be brutally extinguished with lies and assault? Was I just a problem, my loyalty met with hatred? I would not be his victim. Injured and betrayed, I made an unshakeable vow: I was done. I blocked his number and everyone connected to him, severing ties. This was not an escape; this was my rebirth. Florence awaited, a new life on my terms, unburdened by broken promises.
