Vengeance of a Jilted Dressmaker

At twenty-five, Raye Dawkins has built her world around fabric, stitches, and the dream of making something beautiful—just like the life she hopes to share with Eric Mandini. He's charming, sophisticated, and twenty years older, but their connection feels undeniable. What starts as an unexpected encounter in their apartment building's underground parking lot soon turns into something deeper. Raye becomes more than just his lover—she cares for his home, his life, and most of all, his ten-year-old son, Enzo. She believes they're creating something real. Something lasting.

Then, right after Valentine's Day, everything unravels. A cold, impersonal email from Eric ends their relationship without warning. No explanation. No closure. Just gone. When she tries to reach him, he's already left town. For six agonizing months, Raye is trapped in heartbreak, waiting for answers that never come—until he finally returns. But when she sees him again, it's with another woman. Younger. Beautiful. The replacement.

Something inside Raye snaps. The betrayal is too much. The pain too deep. In a moment of reckless desperation, she makes a choice she can't take back—she kidnaps Enzo, the one person Eric truly loves. But as her plan unfolds, Raye realizes she may have set something far more dangerous in motion. What began as a desperate cry for justice spirals into chaos, threatening to consume her completely.

Can she find her way back before it's too late? Or has she crossed a line that will cost her everything?
