Ayla Caddel thought she’d secured her happily ever after when she married Silas Locke, Maple County’s most sought-after entrepreneur.

Ten years later?

She’s basically the unpaid maid, live-in chef, emotional and physical punching bag… and apparently, the designated doormat for the Locke family.

Her friends on the anonymous group chat she’s in: “He cheated on you again?”

Ayla: “It’s just… in a man’s nature.”

Her uterus: “Girl, I’m literally infertile now.”

She sacrifices a six-figure job to stroke Silas’s ego, scrubs toilets with love, and still chips in for groceries — all while her husband is busy playing house with Elena Simmons, his pregnant mistress.

One night, Silas brings Elena home like a guest star on a reality show, along with a major business partner and serves her divorce papers like they’re takeout menus.

Heartbroken and still too in love to sign the divorce papers, she runs to the rooftop to scream into the night.

But before she can figure out whether she’s crying or laughing, she overhears Elena on the phone with another lover and confronts her.

Elena’s response?

A smile.

And a shove.

The pavement rushes up to meet her.

Her last thoughts?

“Maybe I wasn’t the crazy one after all.”

Then… darkness.

But the next time she opens her eyes, she wakes up, not in a hospital, not in a morgue — but in her bedroom. Seven years before her death.

This time?

She knows better and carves out a plan not to let death take her again; 

Step one: Divorce that ‘perfect’ husband.

Step two: Never look back.

Step three: Absolutely, under no circumstances, fall for any man ever again—

Wait. Who’s clinging to her hips like a love-struck octopus?

Ezra Hale, Silas’ oh-so-dignified business partner, has entered the chat.

Turns out, Ezra was never interested in Silas’s business.

He only stuck around because of her.

And the day Ayla died, he crashed his car into a truck and followed her into death with a broken heart. 

Now?

He’s back. Seven years earlier. With one goal in mind:

“This time, I’m not letting you marry that idiot.”

Miles Penner: “Sir, the shareholders are watching.”

Ezra: “Let them. I’m busy hugging my future wife.”

And just like that, Ayla’s carefully crafted revenge plan hits a tiny bump in the road…

Named Ezra Hale.
