Hi! I’m Candela, and I own the best cupcake shop in Silver Springs - before my reputation got ruined, anyway.

When I thought it couldn’t get any worse, my favorite Christmas candle sets my shop on fire!

For just a moment, I allowed myself to believe things would be okay—that I could find a way to recover from my past and move on. Except life quickly proved happily ever afters were nothing more than fantasy for me. I didn’t know who was responsible for turning our home into a bleeding inferno, but I would soon. And when I did? I’d stop at nothing to make sure they felt every whip of anguish I’d been struck with. With time running out, it was up to Maciah and me to seek vengeance. Our hearts might be shattered, but our determination is unbreakable.
