Aurelio Bertram, 24, a dangerously handsome billionaire with a legacy drenched in power and shadows. Grandson of a notorious mob boss. Son of one of the city’s most respected businessmen. Aurelio was a perfect storm—charming, ruthless, and reckless. But at the moment, he was temporarily nothing. Until he fulfilled their one condition. Just as he was plotting revenge on a childhood rival and preparing to attend one of the biggest underground events of the year, the unexpected hit—his family wouldn’t grant him the reins to their empire unless he produced an heir. Easy enough, right? After all, Aurelio Bertram was known in his circle as the king of flings—a man who could charm a woman in seconds and leave her breathless. Getting someone pregnant? A walk in the park. Except… it wasn’t. Weeks turned into months. Not one woman came back with a positive test. Not a single one. Until Erica James. A simple, middle-class hotel waitress with curves that could stop time and a heart hardened by abandonment. Her parents had written her off in high school, convinced she’d never amount to anything. But Erica didn’t need their approval. One night. That’s all it took. Aurelio never expected it. Neither did she. And when the test turned positive, Erica wanted nothing more than to disappear—run far away from the shame, the chaos, and the power that surrounded Aurelio Bertram. But how do you run from a man who owns the city? From the father of your unborn child? From a man who refuses to let go? "Even in the woods, I’d find you, babycakes," Aurelio whispered into her ear, his voice low and possessive. "From now on, you belong to me. You, and everything that has to do with my baby."

Eden Rowe, 21, is beautiful, sweet, naive, and the only child of a former police officer. Oliver Calloway, 24, is handsome, reckless, scandalous, and the only son of the wealthiest family in New York. Eden has been catering to her father's needs since he lost his job and became an abusive alcoholic. She begins working as a maid at the Calloway mansion, where she meets Oliver. Oliver is the kind of guy who gives every girl butterflies and makes them go weak in the knee. He's a daredevil, rebellious, and avoids responsibilities, spending every night with a different girl in his bed. But he soon realizes that all of that is about to change when he gets Eden pregnant and his father forces him to marry her. After Oliver mistreats Eden on their wedding night, she runs away and disappears without a trace. Six years later, an unexpected reunion brings them face-to-face once more. Neither of them is the same person they once were. Oliver, now the CEO of his family's business, is cold, ruthless, and one of the richest men in America. Eden, on the other hand, is a successful businesswoman engaged to Oliver's biggest business rival. Oliver wants Eden and his child back, mostly to satisfy his ego. Eden wants nothing to do with him. But Oliver will stop at nothing to claim what he believes is rightfully his, even if it means using their son as leverage. It's a dangerous game of control where desire becomes obsession, sparks reignite, and deceit and vengeance threaten to destroy them both. Perhaps love is the only thing that can break them free from the prison of their own making, or perhaps love is a curse that will forever damn them.
