Three years of marriage. Three years of waiting. Clara Hayes thought she could endure the loneliness as long as she loved Ethan Stone enough. But on their third wedding anniversary, she waits alone at a dinner table growing cold — while her husband arrives home with another woman's perfume on his collar and an "I forgot" on his lips. That night, she leaves. Ethan Stone, the self-made CEO who has always taken his wife's devotion for granted, wakes up to an empty house and a signed divorce agreement. At first he dismisses it as a tantrum. But as days pass and the silence stretches, he begins to realize what he has lost — the woman who loved him quietly for five years, the home that waited for him every night, the warmth he never noticed until it was gone. Now he has to win her back. Not with money, not with pride, but with the one thing he never gave her — his heart, fully and openly. The road is long, and forgiveness doesn't come cheap. But for Clara Hayes, Ethan Stone is willing to learn how to love again, one small step at a time.
