❤️🔥 HE USED HER AS A PLACEHOLDER — UNTIL HE REALIZED HE COULDN’T LET HER GO

Описание: She was never meant to matter.
In his world, she was simply “the quiet one,” the woman no one chose, a gentle presence the wealthy estate owner expected would never demand anything of him. He married her out of convenience, a safe placeholder while he quietly searched for the woman he believed would one day “complete” his life.

But what happens when the woman you underestimated becomes the one you can’t breathe without?

Anwen Hale entered Penmarick House expecting nothing—no affection, no partnership, no claim on his heart. Hadrian Penmarick, cold, composed, and carved from duty, believed he was immune to feeling. Marriage was structure. Stability. A shield. She was simply the easiest choice.

Until she wasn’t.

When her absence exposes the truth he never dared name, Hadrian finds himself unraveling in ways he can’t control—haunted by her scent, her softness, her steadiness. The man who once kept her at arm’s length crosses counties to bring her home. And the “placeholder wife” becomes the woman whose presence turns his entire life inside out.

This is a story of unexpected devotion, of a marriage born in practicality but transformed by longing. It is the quiet discovery that love often blooms in the very places we never thought to look.

A tale of restraint breaking, hearts awakening, and a man who finally realizes the woman he married was never a stand-in… she was the one.
