At just ten years old, Anne’s world shattered when she lost her parents in a tragic auto crash. Life dealt her a cruel hand, but her aunt—gentle, understanding, and full of grace—took her in. Under her aunt’s care, Anne grew into a young woman who learned to make her own choices and value her independence. They say a single night can change destiny. For Anne, that saying became her truth. Years later, in college, she crossed paths once again with Aiden, her first love—the boy who barely noticed her back in high school. But time had changed them both. Aiden, now mature and self-assured, saw her for who she had become: kind, intelligent, and radiant in her quiet strength. He fell for her—hard. Yet destiny had another twist waiting. Kyle, a mysterious new student and the descendant of a notorious mafia family, joined their college baseball team to keep a low profile. Beneath his calm smile and athletic charm hid a world of danger and secrets. But everything shifted when he met Anne. For the first time in his life, he felt something pure—sympathy, and perhaps something deeper. She became his weakness in a life that demanded strength. Now, Anne stands at a crossroads between two worlds: The warmth of first love rekindled, and the dangerous pull of a heart she never expected to move. Who will win her heart? Will she follow the comfort of love she’s always known— or the uncertain thrill of the one who could lose everything for her?
