When Aryanna Kyle returns to Snow Town, her purpose is clear but cloaked in shadows: infiltrate Darren Miller’s world and exact her revenge. She once had a happy family and parents who loved her more than anyone else. But it was ruined by a man named Darren, and Aryanna swore to make him pay price for it.
However, gaining access to the life of this aloof CEO proves to be as daunting as it is dangerous. For Darren Miller is a man renowned for his ruthless apathy and lethal disregard for anyone beneath him.
But Darren’s world is rife with elusive enemies, which makes Aryanna assume the role of an ally, helping him untangle conspiracies involving his own board of directors and a vicious competitor. The price she needs to pay is signing a contract and becoming his fiancee, like sacrifcing herself to the demon.
Her strategy works. As Darren’s vigilance remains focused outward, he remains unaware of the true threat: the very person by his side, poised like a blade to his back, that becomes the very instrument of his undoing.

Marry to the One Who Betrayed Me

Darren’s face stayed blank, an expression so smooth it was unnatural. He looked from Lisa to me, his hand falling from mine. There was no anger, no betrayal, no hint of anything. His eyes were cold and impossible to read. Was he furious with me or just taking stock of my lies, calculating how much damage I’d done?


Finally, he looked back at Lisa. “Lisa.” He said it with an edge so sharp it made me shiver. The word hung for a moment, and her name sounded more like a reprimand. “Whatever you’re trying to pull here…” He let out a breath, short and clipped like he was forcing himself to keep calm. “It’s embarrassing.”


Lisa’s face tightened, red blotching her cheeks. She swallowed but didn’t back down. “Darren, I’m telling the truth!” Her voice cracked as she jabbed a finger at the screen where my old life was displayed in black and white. “Look at it! This is proof! Look at her!” Her finger pointed to me, trembling. “She’s not Aryanna Kyle. She’s Charline Lambert!”
