A decade ago, Andrea Night walked away from the only woman she ever loved, leaving Cassey Bookner with nothing but heartbreak and a wound that never truly healed.

Now Andrea is back, successful, determined, and desperate for a second chance. But her return is complicated. She isn't just re-entering Cassey's life as an old flame... she's her new boss.

Cassey vows to keep things professional, but the moment they lock eyes, the years between them vanish. The memories, the chemistry, the ache of what they once shared, all come rushing back. And Andrea, as stubborn and magnetic as ever, refuses to let her go this time.

But forgiveness isn't easy. Andrea carries the guilt of leaving, and Cassey carries the resentment of being abandoned. More than that, Cassey is scared. Scared of trusting again, of reopening herself to a love she isn't sure she can survive losing twice. Every time Andrea tries to prove her devotion, Cassey pushes her away, torn between the pull of her heart and the protection of her fears.

Yet fate, and their undeniable connection, keep pulling them back together. As secrets come to light and trust is tested, Andrea will have to prove with both words and actions that she isn't going anywhere this time. And Cassey must decide if she's willing to risk her heart again... or if the pain of the past is too much to overcome.

Because some loves are too powerful to forget. And some bonds, no matter how strained, are meant to last forever.
