He was born with nothing-yet burdened with everything. When Mason's father dies a martyr, his mother, Charlotte, raises him in crushing poverty, sacrificing her youth and health to give him a future. Her sudden death leaves him alone, armed only with her final letters and a vow to honor her dream. Beside him stand two sisters: Sarah, the steadfast healer whose quiet devotion hides a storm of unspoken love, and Claire, the dazzling dreamer who craves fame as much as she craves him. Between them burns a rivalry that threatens to consume his heart. But love is not Mason's only battle. From betrayal by those he trusts to the shadow of Logan, a ruthless rival who covets everything Mason holds dear, his journey is scarred by loss, jealousy, and violence. Even as success and love glimmer on the horizon, destiny strikes again-with memory lost, a fatal illness revealed, and the woman he loves forced to choose between sacrifice and survival.
