Esme Travere thought she'd found her family when she was sixteen. Instead, she found years of bruises, broken promises, and the kind of love that came with conditions. When Severin throws her out with nothing but a carry-on and their six-month-old daughter, Esme swears Juliette will never grow up thinking love looks like this.
Thanks to a chain of women with no patience for cowards, Esme ends up in Monaco, working in Pascale Leclerc's salon. And there, between hair dye and daycare runs, she meets Pascale's middle son-a Formula 1 driver with too-kind eyes, who looks at her like she's already halfway his.
