A runaway groom. A broken engagement. A forced marriage. Isabella never believed love could come with betrayal—until the man she was supposed to marry fled the wedding... with her sister. Left standing in the ruins of her family’s honor, she’s forced to say "I do" to the one man who always watched her from the shadows—Andrés. Strong, silent, and unforgiving, Andrés agrees to marry her for the sake of reputation. But behind his cold eyes is a truth he’s hidden for years: he’s always loved her. As past secrets unravel and passion ignites, Isabella must decide—are they just two people bound by duty, or two hearts that were never meant to be apart? If he’s the wrong groom, why does being with him feel so right? Tone: slow-burn, secret pining, protective male lead, arranged marriage, emotional payoff Vibe: He never said he loved me. But he remembered my fears. My allergies. My favorite coffee. That was louder than any vow.
