Introduction

Katharine Lopez died in prison—betrayed by the man she loved, Remington Cohen, who once vowed to protect her. Accused of harming another woman, she was drained of blood to save Remington’s beloved Fernanda and left to die in silence. A year later, Remington storms into the prison, demanding her bone marrow for Fernanda. When the warden tells him Katharine is dead, he laughs in disbelief—until he sees her death certificate, a pregnancy test, and half an emerald pendant, the same one he once carried. Only then does he realize the truth too late: the woman he destroyed had been the one who saved his life, loved him unconditionally, and carried his child. Now, all that remains of Katharine is regret—and the haunting proof of a love he turned into ruin.
