I married Ethan Lester, the charming golden boy everyone in Garnet, Texas, adored. He was everything a woman could want: successful, handsome, from a prominent family. But as I moved into his duplex, bringing my younger sister Sabrina along for the summer, a chilling apprehension settled in. His mother, Martha, immediately saw something unsettling in Sabrina. She warned her husband, "That girl, the younger one... she looks at Ethan in a way that' s not right." What Martha couldn't know was that my sister wasn't looking at Ethan with desire, but with the haunting memory of a night four years ago. A night when a powerful, popular high school contractor from a good family cornered a terrified teenage girl. A night when he hurt her, then told her no one would ever believe her. That girl was my sister, Sabrina, and the charming golden boy was her attacker. We couldn' t go to the police; it was his word against hers, his family's reputation against ours. Justice was a concept foreign to this town. So I planned a different kind of justice. I married the monster. I brought my sister back into his life. And now, with the town' s whispers as our weapon, the trap was set.

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.
