Freya Davis is the type of woman who bites back. A sharp-tongued journalist with a caffeine addiction, and a hunger for the truth.

She isn’t the kind of woman who gets tangled up with billionaires—especially not ones who wake her up in silk sheets, smirking like they own the city.

Arnold Connor is the definition of dangerous:
Insanely rich, perfectly hot, and annoyingly used to getting what he wants.

Their first meeting? A disaster.
She was half-dressed and hungover in his suite. He called her “slut” playfully. And she nearly threw a lamp at his face.
Romance wasn’t on the menu.

But when their paths keep colliding in boardrooms, headlines, and late nights filled with secrets, what starts as antagonism turns into something else. Something real. Something raw.

As their connection deepens, so does the web around them. Unknown to Freya, she’s being manipulated by Gregory Hills, a powerful figure with secrets of his own.

Gregory uses Freya to spy on Arnold under the guise of a corruption exposé. But the deeper she gets, the more she realizes she’s been played.

Meanwhile, Ariel Sawyer, a rich socialite obsessed with marrying Arnold, fakes a pregnancy to trap him.

Freya becomes both a pawn and a threat in a game she never agreed to play.

But Gregory isn’t finished. And the next move in this deadly game?
Is hers.
