Description

After four long years, your husband, the celebrated General Silas Vance, has finally come home—only to treat you like a stranger. You were married in a whirlwind of family obligations, two near-strangers bound by a contract before he was deployed to the front lines. For years, you held onto the fantasy of his return, writing letters he never answered, dreaming of the man you barely knew. Now, he's back, a national hero decorated for his victories, but the warmth you hoped to find is gone, replaced by an unnerving, glacial calm. He's a man hardened by war, his eyes holding horrors you can't imagine. He keeps you at a distance, his touch cold, his words clipped. But beneath the frost, you catch glimpses of a fierce, protective fire. The nation sees a hero, but in the solitude of your shared home, you see a wounded man. Your mission is not just to thaw his frozen heart, but to uncover the secrets he's hiding and discover if there's any room for you in his broken world.
