For seven years, Elara Thorne lived in the shadow of her own marriage. While her tech mogul husband Damien showered attention on his mistress, Elara played the perfect corporate wife—making his coffee, organizing his schedule, and watching her six-year-old daughter Cora grow closer to the other woman.
The other woman who happened to be her half-sister.
Vivienne Dubois had everything Elara didn't—Damien's heart, Cora's adoration, and the respect of everyone at Thorne Industries. When Elara flew home hoping to celebrate her birthday with her family, she found them planning a surprise party for Vivienne instead. When little Cora innocently asked if Vivienne could be her mommy, something inside Elara finally snapped.
Elara had been a brilliant AI researcher before marriage stole her ambitions. She'd co-founded YodaVision Technologies, only to abandon it all for a man who never loved her back. But now Julian Croft, her former partner, wants her to return as Chief Innovation Officer. The tech world that forgot her exists is about to remember why she was once called a visionary.
Walking away seems impossible when it means leaving Cora behind. But staying means accepting a life where she's invisible in her own home, humiliated at her own workplace, and competing with her half-sister for scraps of attention from her own family.
Damien thinks his wife will quietly accept whatever he gives her, the way she always has. He's about to discover that seven years of silence doesn't mean surrender—it means she's been planning her comeback. And when Elara Vance reclaims her name, her career, and her power, the tech world won't be the only thing shaken.
Some women bend. Others break. But the smart ones? They rebuild themselves stronger than before.
Pretty good book overall just hope its not one of those book that drag on and on. So far so good though.
this book is driving me nuts!! there's no regret in it.. ARGH!! makes me wanna stop reading cause I can't stand how this relationship is going! Let her met a man she likes or something instead of hoping for her soon be ex husband!
This book is dragging on too long. Would you please find someone special for the main character in this book? Her ex-husband is a jerk and I’m tired of hearing the same thing going over and over again about the woman he’s having an affair with. Some of the characters in this book is confusing you keep not. I’m getting lost about the characters on this book. Either Beck is a single man with a niece or Beck is a man single man with a daughter. What is it?
Storyline is out of sequence and yeah, contradicting itself from one chapter to the next. people's names change. And scenarios keep getting rewritten into another story direction
I hope it doesn’t get dragged like other books and stops with the repeated scenarios same disappointment always 🥲 overall a good read!
Author is confused! Main characters are Damien Thorne and Elara Vance! Not Dylan Norton and Catherine!!!!!!’ Check chapter 227 onwards ☹️

Chapters are repetitive. Book is dragging. Names are changed. Has potential to be great. Also rated 18 but yet to understand why?
