Falling in love with you is the most regrettable thing I've ever done.

From the back cover

Aria Sterling loved Liam Hayes for seven years, yet he sent her to prison for a crime she never committed. Convinced she had hired thugs to hurt his first love, Chloe, days before her wedding, Liam arranged for Aria to be tormented by fellow inmates. She endured three years of cruelty, while her father, the former head of Sterling Enterprises, leapt to his death after watching a video of her humiliation.

On the day of her release, Liam is waiting. He binds her to a car and parades her through the streets, broadcasting that she is a shameless homewrecker. He tells her that her father died seven days after she was imprisoned, and that he had the body cremated. Then he takes her to the home she once shared with her father, where Chloe now stands, claiming the house as her own.

Liam demands Aria sign over the shares her father left her. Though her body is broken and blood seeps from her mouth, she refuses. She would rather die than surrender what remains of her family to the man who destroyed it.
