Some silences are heavy enough to shape entire lives.

When Liam Carter walks into Chloe's bookstore, he carries a shadow that extends far beyond his quiet elegance. In his eyes, she recognizes a pain she knows all too well-an echo of something she herself carries.

But there's more: a disturbing resemblance. Every gesture, every hesitation from Liam seems to hide an untold story, a name left unspoken. Savannah.

Drawn into a web of dangerous courtesies and family secrets, Chloe discovers that the Carter mansion holds more than wealth and status. It holds suffocated truths, toxic alliances, and a past that refuses to stay buried.

How far would you go to protect a lie? And what happens when love grows in the unlikeliest of places-amidst the wreckage of guilt and deception?

An intense psychological romance about the truths we keep silent and the price we pay for loving them.

Perfect for fans of: Taylor Jenkins Reid, David Nicholls, and emotionally rich family sagas.
