Nananatili sina Isabella Russo at Adam Kingsley sa kanilang limang taong pagsasama bilang mag-asawa ngunit nagsanhi ito ng pagyurak sa kanilang dignidad.

Gayunpaman, may isang lalaki binili ang lahat ng media entertainment at lumuhod sa kanya na nangungusap ang mga mata at nagmamakaawa na bumalik siya sa piling niya. Nagkataong lumitaw si Isabella na hawak ang kamay ng isa pang lalaki. Ang kanyang bagong pag-ibig ay ipinagsigawan niya sa mundo.

Adam Sinclair adalah seorang CEO sukses yang dikenal dingin, ambisius, dan tak pernah kalah dalam dunia bisnis. Baginya, dunia korporat adalah permainan yang harus dimenangkan, dan setiap pesaing hanyalah rintangan yang harus disingkirkan. Namun, semua berubah ketika Aurora Lennox muncul—wanita cerdas dan berani yang tak hanya mampu menyaingi kejayaannya, tetapi juga mencuri kontrak penting dari tangannya. Persaingan mereka semakin memanas, beradu strategi dan taktik dalam bisnis yang keras. Namun, di balik setiap pertemuan yang penuh ketegangan, ada ketertarikan yang semakin sulit diabaikan. Api gairah menyala di antara mereka, menciptakan batas tipis antara kebencian dan keinginan. Ketika Aurora menawarkan sebuah kerja sama yang dapat menguntungkan keduanya, Adam dihadapkan pada dilema: tetap menjadikannya musuh atau menerima tawaran yang bisa membuka lebih dari sekadar peluang bisnis—tetapi juga godaan yang berbahaya. Dalam permainan yang mempertaruhkan kekuasaan dan hati, siapa yang akan tunduk lebih dulu? Apakah mereka akan hancur dalam ambisi masing-masing, atau justru menemukan sesuatu yang lebih dari sekadar kemenangan? “Persaingan ini bukan hanya tentang bisnis. Ini tentang kendali, tentang siapa yang akan menguasai siapa.”

I married Rafe Maretti—the man who owned the Maretti Casino empire. Sophisticated, ruthless, but sinfully charming. By year three of our marriage, I introduced my little sister to his nephew, Adam Moretti—twenty-five, all sharp smiles and sharper ambition. He ran the dirtier side of the family’s business—arms, drugs, the kind of trade that dripped blood and money in equal parts. I married the powerful, irresistible uncle. She married the young, dangerous nephew. It was supposed to be our fairytale. Then one day, I got kidnapped in Rafe’s casino. Snatched by a rival mafia family desperate to force Rafe to sign over one of his biggest, most profitable casinos. Except Rafe didn’t answer the phone or even notice I was gone. The kidnappers grew impatient. First, it was slaps. Then punches. Then they shattered my leg and buried a knife in my stomach. Still no word from my husband. Until finally, after what felt like a hundred unanswered calls, a single message came through. "I’m with Bianca. She’s having a stomach. Stop calling." Once the kidnappers realized I had no value, they dumped me in a rotting warehouse like discarded luggage. It was Isla, my sister, who found me. She got me out. And then the brakes failed. The car spun out. Isla went unconscious beside me. I tried calling Adam. Isla’s husband. But as soon the call went through, all I could hear was. “Leave me along. Isla, I am in the middle of something here.” When I clearly heard a woman’s voice in the back. If not for a passing stranger, Isla and me wouldn’t have made it to the hospital, let along have survived. So when I opened my eyes again, the first thing I thought was: I’m divorcing that sorry bastard. The Maretti can go to hell.
