Andrea Ramirez na ang isang gabi na puno ng saya at kalibugan ay kayang baguhin ang buong mundo niya. Isa lang dapat itong walang kahulugang one-night stand—isang hamon mula sa kaniyang mga kaibigan, at pagkakataon para patunayan na hindi na siya bata sa mata ni Luca. Ngunit kinabukasan, ang estrangherong hindi niya matigil na iniisip… ay walang iba kundi si Luca Romanov. Her dad’s best friend. Her boss. Her protector. At ang lalaki na matagal na niyang hinahangaan—ang kaniyang lihim na paghanga na akala niyang hindi niya kailanman makakamtan. Si Luca ay kaakit-akit, puno ng kumpiyansa sa sarili, at tila walang balak magseryoso sa pag-ibig dahil halos ang trabaho na lamang ang pokus niya. Ngunit sa kabila ng propesyonalismong iyon, hindi maiwasang madama ni Andrea ang kakaibang tensyon sa pagitan nila—isang apoy na hindi niya kayang patayin. Alam ni Andrea na mali at delikado ang pagsasama ng trabaho at pagnanasa. Pero bawat tingin, bawat galaw, bawat salita ni Luca ay pumupukaw sa kaniya. Hindi niya maitatanggi ang nararamdaman, at sa bawat sandali, nahuhulog siya nang mas malalim sa lalaking matagal niyang pinapangarap. Wala siyang ibang plano kundi paibigin si Luca. Handa siyang ilagay sa panganib ang lahat—ang kaniyang reputasyon, ang kaniyang trabaho, at ang kaniyang puso—upang mahulog sa kaniya ang kaibigan ng kaniyang ama. Ngunit hanggang saan siya handang magtiis bago tuluyang masunog sa apoy ng kanilang ipinagbabawal na pagnanasa?

My brother crossed the wrong man—and now I have to pay the price. He was an idiot who actually believed he could steal four million dollars from a dangerous man that sold intelligence for a living. Instead of losing a hand or an eye, I was drugged and taken from my bed in the dead of night. When I open my eyes, I’m in a cell, and my captor is a beautiful man that doesn’t need to take a woman to get laid. I try to escape—many times—but I quickly realize there’s no escape. Even if my brother comes up with the four million dollars, this man still won’t let me go. He intends to take his revenge in a far more sinister way. With no other choice, I submit to his demands…and enjoy them. I continue to search for an escape plan, but my captor is always one step ahead of me. He implanted a device in my body when I arrived, and all he has to do it hit a button and I’m dead. If I try to escape one more time, he won’t hesitate to use it. So now I’m left with one option—to make him want to let me go. And there’s only one way to do that—by making him fall in love with me.
