Stella's life shattered the night a stranger left her holding the blame for a prostitution scandal. Pregnant, disgraced, and alone, she rebuilt herself from nothing. Then Ethan walked in — gentle, broke, unremarkable — and a rushed marriage gave her something she'd stopped hoping for. Safety. Warmth. A man who seemed to want nothing but her.
But Ethan is not who he says. He's the same stranger from that night, and behind the modest apartment sits a billion-dollar company with his name on it. Every kindness was built on a lie Stella never agreed to live inside. When the truth surfaces, she has to decide whether the man she loves ever actually existed — or whether she's been sleeping next to a stranger for three years.
