Wrong Time, Right Love

In a world where love and betrayal intertwine, one woman's life is irrevocably altered by a single, fateful night. Nicole, driven by desperation to save her ailing mother, makes a heart-wrenching decision: to stand in for her half-sister, Queenie, in a clandestine encounter with a wealthy man, hoping the promised payment of $200,000 will cover the cost of her mother’s critical surgery. However, this act of self-sacrifice spirals into unforeseen danger when she discovers the man she unknowingly sleeps with is not Joseph Mann, but Colton Gardner, the formidable heir to a family whose influence dwarfs even the Manns. This dramatic **romance** takes a dark turn as Nicole's night of supposed salvation leaves her shattered and vulnerable. Compounding her despair, her mother passes away while Nicole is with Colton, a tragedy intensified by Queenie’s deliberate act of preventing the hospital from reaching her. Pregnant and consumed by grief, Nicole vanishes, leaving behind the only life she's ever known. Five years later, a transformed Nicole returns, shedding her past naiveté for the persona of Lisa, a celebrated fashion designer at F&M Apparel. Her adorable and remarkably intelligent son, Hayden, is her constant companion and source of strength. However, beneath her polished exterior lies a burning desire for **revenge** and a relentless pursuit of justice. Navigating a complex web of **hidden identities** and long-buried secrets, Nicole is determined to uncover the truth behind the events that shattered her life. Her quest for vengeance brings her face-to-face with the ghosts of her past: Colton Gardner, the man who unknowingly fathered her child, and Queenie, the half-sister whose treachery set her on this path. As she navigates the treacherous social circles of the wealthy and powerful, Nicole must confront not only the men who hold the answers to her past, but also the daunting challenge of protecting her son from the storm she is about to unleash. Will Nicole succeed in her quest for retribution, or will the secrets of the past consume her and Hayden, forever binding them to a legacy of heartbreak and deception? Can she find a **second chance** at love amidst the chaos, or will the shadows of her past forever darken her future?
