Synopsis
I was never supposed to be in this story. When Bailey steps into a world she’s read but never belonged to, she’s determined not to disturb the fate of Julian—the destined hero whose story is already written. But as she falls for the man behind the myth, every page she turns unravels a new secret: a marriage won by chance, a family haunted by ambition, and a love that’s both salvation and curse. When the real heroine appears, Bailey must choose—fight for a place in a narrative that erases her, or risk everything for a fleeting happiness that was never hers to claim. In a world where every ending is foretold, what happens when the invisible wife finally decides to rewrite her fate? Will love be enough to break the cycle, or is she doomed to vanish between the lines?
