Kiara Hoffman was a woman of many talents-intelligent, capable, and overqualified for most of the roles she found herself in. But when it came to love, she was anything but successful. That is, until she met Dr. Charles Debrun, the man who stole her heart in an instant. There was just one problem-he already belonged to someone else.
Heartbroken and resigned to fate, Kiara buried her feelings. But luck has a strange way of turning the tide. In a cruel twist of destiny, Charles loses everything-his career, his prestige, and most painfully, his beloved fiancée, Sophia. When an old friend seeks out Charles' medical expertise, Kiara sees her chance-not only to help him but to place herself back into his life.
Haunted by his past betrayals, Charles has sworn never to open his heart again. First, Sabrina. Then, Sophia. The scars they left behind run deep, making him wary of love and its empty promises. But Kiara is not so easily ignored. Once just an acquaintance from his internship days, she now stands before him-a persistent force, determined to break down his walls.
Can Charles resist the pull of desire? Or will Kiara be the one to awaken a love buried for too long, one that even he cannot deny?
A tale of second chances, unrelenting passion, and a love that refuses to fade-Swiss Savant will pull you into a world where fate is both cruel and kind.
