An heiress bound by duty. A lord bound by legacy. One reckless love that defied them both.
Some love stories are bound to destiny. Theirs was written in starlight... but even stars can fall.
Isabella Rivera was raised to believe in loyalty, not passion. Heiress to a family whose fortune carries whispered ties to organized crime, her path was meant to be safe, proper, and controlled. Gabriel Fitzgerald, the young English lord with Pendragon blood in his veins, should have belonged to another world entirely - a scholar raised for reputation, restraint, and legacy.
But the moment they met, sparks ignited into wildfire. Their love was reckless, defiant, and doomed from the start. She was the wild heiress, daring where she shouldn't be, and he was everything she was warned against - and everything she could not resist.
Their fire burned too brightly to last. Family pressure and the promise of a safe, steady suitor tore them apart, leaving Isabella with a broken heart and Gabriel with the taste of ruin.
Years later, in the fortnight of her wedding to that safe, acceptable match, Gabriel storms back into her life. No longer the cautious boy she remembers, he has become a daring adventurer, chasing myths across seas and deserts with storms in his veins. And Isabella - once reckless, now bent to duty - feels the pull of the fire she thought she had buried.
Before the Fitzgerald Sisters, there was a love story written in fire and starlight - a dangerous choice that would weave the first threads of their legacy.
