Synopsis

Daphne Wray spent years writing hit songs for her adopted sister, Cleo, while her family called it gratitude. Her ex-fiancé, Julian, called it peace. Then Daphne gets a second chance, and a countdown on her wrist says she has days left to take her name back. The family wants her to smile while Cleo takes the credit on a live-streamed comeback show. Daphne wants proof, public truth, and no more apologies. Soren Thane, the show's cold owner, watches Cleo's tears and Daphne's calm. His attention could be protection. It could be another cage. Daphne is not their secret anymore.
