For six months, I’ve been trapped in a wheelchair, my body useless and my mind clouded by a manufactured fog.
Until a severe infection lands me in the hospital, safely away from my husband’s daily “health smoothies”.
My mind finally clears, and I hear the most important people in my life plotting my downfall.
Simon and Nina are having a twisted affair under my roof. Worse still, my husband is intentionally poisoning me, keeping me crippled so he can steal my multi-million-dollar company.

They forgot about Owen Maddox.
Owen is the rugged medical expert Simon fired for asking too many dangerous questions. Now, he’s my only lifeline.
Every morning, I smile at my husband and secretly pour his poison away.
And every night, while Simon sneaks downstairs to sleep with my best friend, Owen slips into my dark house. With his unwavering support, I am painstakingly rebuilding my weakened muscles.
This Friday, Simon is staging a formal meeting to force me to sign away my empire.
He expects to wheel me in and take everything I own.
He has no idea I’m about to stand up.
A gripping domestic thriller of psychological survival, shattered trust, and ultimate female catharsis.
