The Heiress Reborn: A Legacy Unleashed

I was Isabella "Izzy" Montoya, sole heiress to a fortune that swayed nations, groomed to choose a husband who would secure my family's legacy.

In my first life, that man was Ethan Ashford, my charming, long-standing crush.

I poured the Montoya empire into his rise, gifted him power beyond measure.

Then he soared, destroyed everything I held dear, seized our assets, and left me with nothing but ash and a shattered heart.

He blamed me publicly, left me utterly ruined.

I died, heartbroken, and Marc Vance, the good man who quietly loved me, died trying to expose Ethan, trying to save *me*.

Our dynasty was decimated.

The memories of his betrayal, the destruction of my family, and the quiet heroism of Marc Vance were vivid, cruel.

How could I have been so blind?

How could one man cause so much devastation?

Then, I woke up.

It was the day of the Legacy Gala, the day I was to announce my choice – the man who would receive the "Montoya Midas Touch."

This time, Ethan Ashford would not win.

This time, I would choose wisely, and the Midas Touch would not turn to dust in my hands.
