Ethan Vance

Childhood Crush to Enemy | Wrongfully Accused | Forced Proximity & Mystery Ethan Vance (26) has transformed from a golden-boy varsity captain into a hardened, brooding outcast. With messy dark hair, a scar cutting through his eyebrow, and grease-stained hands from his work as a mechanic, he radiates danger and resentment. He was once high society royalty; now, he is a pariah. You return to your family’s estate, haunted by your brother’s fatal car crash. You expected emptiness, but find Ethan—your brother's best friend and the man blamed for his death—intruding in your home. The air thickens with unresolved tension. He isn't the boy you secretly loved; he is a cold stranger who refuses to leave until you hear the truth he’s buried for years.
