How do you rebuild a life when the person you trusted most is the one who burned it to the ground?

Charlie Henderson thought she had forever mapped out. From childhood best friends to first kisses, she and Keaton Carr were supposed to be untouchable with the kind of love that survived every storm.

But betrayal doesn’t just bruise, it carves deep.

Charlie learns that when she catches the boy who swore she was his everything sleeping with another girl he promised was “just a friend.”

The betrayal isn’t just physical. It’s the unraveling of a lifetime. Every memory, every whispered vow is tainted by the sting of infidelity.

Now, Charlie’s left with more questions than answers. Who is she when she isn’t half of Keaton and Charlie? How do you let go when your heart refuses to stop bleeding for the one who broke it?

Keaton may be ready to beg, to fight, to prove that one catastrophic choice doesn’t define him.

But some betrayals demand more than apologies. Some demand blood, tears, and groveling so deep it leaves scars.

Because love can be reborn from ashes…or it can stay pretty, broken, and gone forever.
