To every reader who turned the first page,
If you are reading these words, it means you have journeyed through 100 chapters of vengeance and victory, of shattered legacies and rebuilt lives. You have walked alongside Paige and Reomen from a collision in a grimy bar to the quiet triumph of their penthouse, from the depths of betrayal to the heights of a hard-won love.
When I first put pen to paper (or, more accurately, fingers to keyboard), this story was a single, burning ember—a question of what happens when a woman who has lost everything decides to take it all back. You, the reader, were the one who breathed oxygen onto that ember, fanning it into the roaring blaze that The Heiress Gambit became.
This was never just my story. It became ours.
