Years later, a paternity test exposes the truth—and brings Johannes crashing back into her carefully built life. He’s no longer the reckless boy who broke her heart. Now he’s determined to be a father to their son… and the man Nora once loved. But scars of abandonment run deep, and trusting him again may cost her the peace she fought so hard to protect. Their son longs for the family he never had, and Johannes is willing to risk everything to prove he belongs by their side. Yet for Nora, letting him close means reopening old wounds. Will she guard her heart and let him be only a father—or dare to believe in a second chance at love?
