She left with a box of dishes and a broken heart. His father’s will just dragged her back.

Josephine Calloway thought she knew exactly how her marriage ended – with silence, a signed separation agreement, and a rumor she never believed but could never disprove. Fourteen months later, her husband’s dying father leaves behind one final, infuriating condition: Callum Ashworth keeps his family’s shipping empire only if he and Josephine live as husband and wife for one more year. Walk away, and the boatyard that’s the last thing she has of her father’s is gone for good.

Moving back into Marsh House means facing the man who let her go without a single explanation – and the truth he’s spent over a year too afraid to tell her. A father’s ultimatum. A manufactured scandal. A debt paid off in secret. Every wall Josephine built to protect herself starts cracking the moment Callum finally starts fighting for her instead of hiding from her.

But old money doesn’t give up old grudges easily, and someone in this family isn’t finished trying to tear them apart – permanently, this time.

Some marriages end. This one might finally begin. Get your copy today and find out if a love this broken can be rebuilt from the ground up.
