   Summary

   Six years after a bitter divorce shattered their once-loving marriage, Atem and Téa live worlds apart—he, haunted by a betrayal he never fully understood, and she, raising their daughter alone in the heart of New York City. Unbeknownst to Atem, the child he never knew exists carries the pieces of a future that could mend the past. When fate unexpectedly brings their paths together, long-buried truths begin to surface, forcing both to confront the pain they left behind. As emotions reignite and secrets unravel, Atem and Téa must decide whether forgiveness can pave the way for a second chance—or if their love was truly lost for good.
