The story

Claire has spent three years building Vela Jewelry beside her husband, Ethan Cole, pouring her inheritance and her craft into the company. But when Ethan's fire-captain, Daniel White, died saving him, Ethan took in Daniel's fragile sister, Zara White, and made her comfort the debt he can never repay. On the couple's third wedding anniversary, a candlelit dinner ends with a pot of boiling soup scalding Claire's hand while Ethan holds and soothes Zara instead.

A jewelry designer whose hand now bears second-degree burns, Claire faces the Crown Prize submission she has worked toward for a year. Yet Ethan installs Zara as acting design director and claims his majority share gives him the right to decide. Every sacrifice Claire made for him, and every cruelty Zara hides behind her tears, presses her toward a breaking point.

Obligation has outweighed love in this house for too long, and Claire is done being the villain of a story she never wrote.

Opening

"Ethan, I'm scared of fire..."

Zara curled into Ethan's arms, trembling.

I stared at the back of my own hand --- skin split and raw from the scalding soup --- and heard only his cold, flat voice.

"Claire, you knew Zara was terrified of fire. Why the hell did you light candles? You just can't stand to see her happy, can you?"

Three years of marriage. Because of his fallen comrade, I had become the villain of our own story.
