The Estranged Fiancée

Zoey Ashford spent most of her life engaged to a man she’d never met — a faceless promise made by families and sealed with expensive gifts and unanswered dreams. She believed in the story, believed in him… until he didn’t show up on the day they were meant to marry. Humiliated and heartbroken, Zoey walks away from the altar — and straight into the arms of a stranger. He’s everything she never expected: grounded, kind, and quietly captivating. With him, the ache begins to ease. With him, something real begins to bloom. But the past doesn’t stay buried forever. When a familiar name resurfaces with a second chance and a story Zoey never saw coming, she’s forced to face the one question her heart dreads most: What if the right man came at the wrong time? And what if falling for him was the biggest betrayal of all?
