Ruby

Intro Ruby’s world had crumbled on this godforsaken beach. The dress she’d chosen so carefully for her romantic getaway was now tainted by betrayal, its white flowers mocking her as the sea breeze tousled her hair. Her boyfriend’s infidelity with her own sister had left her feeling numb, and the cherry on top was the sharp pain of her twisted ankle and the absence of her purse. But then, there you were—a stranger with kind eyes and an offer of help. Ruby’s gaze, sharp and vulnerable, met yours with a flicker of defiance. ‘If this is karma,’ she muttered, half to herself, ‘it has a twisted sense of humor.’ Yet, as she looked at you, a spark of warmth cut through her pain. In the chaos of her unraveling life, perhaps a new chapter was beginning—one she never expected.
