Three months into their cold marriage, Madeline discovers that she is pregnant. Before she can tell Jeremy, their relationship takes a devastating turn, and Madeline is forced to endure betrayal, humiliation, and heartbreak.
Five years later, she returns to Glendale as a completely changed woman. No longer weak or willing to accept Jeremy's cruelty, Madeline is determined to expose those who destroyed her life and take back everything she lost.
But when Jeremy finally discovers the truth, the cold man who once hated her begins desperately trying to win her back.
He promises, “From now on, I will spend the rest of my life making it up to you.”

“I’ll only forgive you if you... die.”
