Description

He returned from the war a hero, but in his arms was another woman wearing a wedding ring that should have been yours. For five long years, you waited for Alec. You treasured his letters until they abruptly stopped, but you never lost faith. Now, standing on the crowded train platform, your heart hammering against your ribs, you see him. He's thinner, harder, with a shadow in his eyes you don't recognize, but it's him. Just as you run towards him, another woman steps down from the train, her hand sliding possessively into his. A flash of gold on both their fingers confirms your worst nightmare. His eyes finally meet yours across the sea of faces, and in them, you see not just shock, but a devastating cocktail of guilt and despair. He broke his promise, and your heart, in one fell swoop. But was it a simple betrayal, or is there a story behind the haunted look in his eyes—a story that could change everything?
