When 22-year-old Olivia Blake is forced into an arranged marriage with Damon Cross—the cold, calculated billionaire who destroyed her father’s company—she vows to make him pay. But Damon didn’t agree to the marriage out of love. He needs a bride to secure a ruthless business merger, and Olivia is the perfect pawn… or so he thinks.
Beneath Damon’s icy exterior lies a man scarred by betrayal and bound by dangerous secrets. Olivia, fiery and clever, is more than a match for his manipulation. What begins as a power game turns into a dangerous obsession—one that threatens to expose hidden truths, ignite forbidden desires, and unravel them both.
As enemies become reluctant allies and passion blurs the line between hate and need, Olivia must decide: is Damon her greatest enemy… or the only man who can protect her from a far greater danger?
Power. Betrayal. Lust. Vengeance.
In this marriage, love isn’t the goal—survival is.
