She searched for a savior. What she found was a nightmare. Some traps you see too late. A gritty, haunting story of survival.
“Some traps you see too late. Some you set yourself.”
Rita Carson is fifty, restless, and dangerously deluded. Convinced her salvation lies in the arms of a rich man 💸, she dives headfirst into a world of dating apps 📱, speed dating nights, and empty flings.
When a charming, mysterious stranger offers her everything she’s ever fantasized about — travel ✈️, luxury 🥂, and escape — she says yes.
She never asks what it might cost.
What begins as a glamorous escape to a sun-drenched villa 🏡 spirals into a nightmare she can’t wake from. Stripped of choice and dignity, Rita finds herself caught in a predator’s carefully spun web 🕷️.
When the dream dies and the man vanishes, she’s left to confront the wreckage of her choices — and the daughter she abandoned chasing shadows.
But when Chloe steps back into her life 💔➡️❤️, Rita glimpses a chance at redemption. Not through fairy-tale rescues, but through the brutal, healing work of facing the truth.
