His Last Chance at Love – Synopsis

Billionaire Dominic Hayes has everything—wealth, power, and influence. But when he receives a devastating diagnosis, his carefully controlled world crumbles. With limited time left, there’s only one thing he truly regrets: walking away from the only woman he ever loved, Camille Rivers.

A decade ago, Dominic chose ambition over love, leaving Camille behind in their small coastal town. Now, desperate for closure, he tracks her down, only to find that she’s been keeping a secret—her ten-year-old son, Liam, who has Dominic’s piercing blue eyes and sharp wit.

Camille never planned to tell Dominic about their child. She built a quiet life, shielding Liam from the pain of a father who never looked back. But when Dominic reappears, determined to make amends, she’s forced to confront the past she never truly moved on from.

As Dominic fights for a place in their lives, he realizes he has more to lose than ever before. But will Camille let him back into her heart, knowing he might not have a future to offer? And when Dominic discovers a second chance he never expected, will love be enough to rewrite their fate?

His Last Chance at Love

The sun dipped low over Haven Cove, casting golden light over the waves as Camille stood on the pier, watching the ocean roll toward shore. The salty breeze tangled in her hair, and she inhaled deeply, trying to calm the racing of her heart.

Dominic was behind her. She didn't need to turn to know.

"Camille," his voice was steady, but there was an ache beneath it. "I almost lost you once. I won't do it again."

She closed her eyes. "You were the one who almost left this time."

"I know," he admitted. "And I was a fool for even thinking about it."

He stepped closer, his presence warm against the cool sea air.

"I've spent my life chasing things that don't matter," Dominic said. "Wealth, power, the next big deal. And for what? None of it meant anything without you. Without Liam." He exhaled shakily. "But when I got sick, everything became clear. I wanted time—more time—to fix my mistakes, to make things right."

Camille finally turned to face him. His eyes, once full of pain and distance, now held something else—certainty.

"You don't have to prove anything, Dominic."

"Yes, I do." He took her hand, holding it against his chest, where his heart beat steady beneath her fingertips. "You and Liam are my home. Not the houses, not the businesses. You. I want a future with you, if you'll have me."

Her breath hitched. "You were always going to leave, Dom. That's why I was scared to let you in again."

"I'm here now. And I'm not going anywhere."

Silence stretched between them, heavy with everything left unspoken. And then, finally, Camille surged forward, wrapping her arms around him. Dominic caught her instantly, his grip strong, as if he would never let go.

"I love you, Camille," he whispered against her hair. "I've always loved you."

Tears welled in her eyes as she pulled back just enough to meet his gaze. "I love you too, Dominic."

A slow, reverent smile spread across his lips before he leaned down and kissed her, soft and lingering, tasting of salt and promise.

From the shore, Liam watched them, a small smile tugging at his lips. Isabel nudged him. "You okay, kid?"

Liam shrugged, though his eyes were bright. "I think they finally figured it out."

She chuckled. "Took them long enough."

As the waves crashed and the stars began to scatter across the sky, Camille, Dominic, and Liam stood together—a family, finally whole.
