Hope is tired of feeling like a victim after losing her fashion line, being betrayed by Carter, and watching Steffy dismantle everything she worked for. Determined to reclaim her power, she sets her sights on the one person who can help her: Thomas. With him out of town, she devises a way to bring him back—by using the one thing she knows he can’t resist: her. While Thomas left to escape the chaos and his unresolved feelings for Hope, she sees this as her chance.
At first, she reaches out professionally, telling him how much Forrester Creations misses his talent. But soon, her messages turn personal, reminding him of their past connection and what they could have had. When he hesitates, she takes a bold step—sending a stunning picture of herself along with a message he can’t ignore: “I need you, Thomas.” But is Hope genuinely interested in him, or is she simply using him as a pawn for revenge? And if Thomas returns, will he fall into her trap, or will he outmaneuver her?
