Elena Fairfax never imagined she would be alone and disgraced, struggling to protect her daughter after her husband’s sudden death and scandal. Then disaster strikes again, and her only refuge, the Whitmore Conservatory, is destroyed. How can she provide for her child when everything she depends on is gone?

When he learns of Elena’s misfortune, he offers help, sparking trust—and an unexpected attraction that he can’t ignore…

Together, Elena and Sebastian face loss, betrayal, and the chance at something more. As their daughters watch and hope, can two wounded hearts rebuild what was lost and find love…or will the weight of ruined reputations and shattered trust tear their families apart?
