Losing her best friend in a fire felt like the worst thing that could happen to Anastasia, but that was before Kasper proposed a marriage. Harboring rage and resentment that seems to grow more than it lessens, makes Kasper cold and unfair to Anastasia, enough to make her tremble in fear whenever he's nearby. Their relationship is so far from normal, and holds so little of the feelings it should that even speaking about it aloud is forbidden. When Anastasia starts to get glimpses of the man that Kasper can be, she falls a little harder. But would it be enough to erase all of the hurt he has dealt her overtime? What happens when Kasper starts to see her in a new light, as the woman she is and deserving of all he is too afraid to give? Would his feelings for each other push aside the bitterness he's cradled for so long or would the bitterness override the best thing he's ever felt?

"You're saying?" "I'm saying, I know you're avoiding me." She froze. "I see the way you look at me Tarah." Their eyes met. But she quickly looked away. "Look at me darling." He said huskily. He lifted her chin. She finally looked at him in his soul sucking eyes. "Are you attracted to me?" "No." She lied. TARAH What do you do when you feel things you never felt before? Feelings you never thought you would feel, towards someone you shouldn't feel that to. Feelings you should never feel towards your husband's brother. And what if it happens, he feels the same. What do you do? What do I do? How could I keep myself away from him, when we live under one roof. How can I not get attached to him, when he's all I am into. He showed me my darkest desires I never thought I had. He awakened my deepest feelings. He opened the door to my heart, and my damn legs as well. He was the greatest temptation that I failed to resist. I never thought of getting married through a contract. More so of falling in love with my husband's brother. EZEKIEL The marriage contract wasn't entirely legal, but still, a grooms valid name was needed. There was no second bastard son at all, and I couldn't come up with a name. So, I put my name on it. Making Tarah married to me. Yes. To me. She's married to me. Which she didn't know. And wouldn't know. I know she's just adopted, but I'll still mess around her, as planned. And what could I do? She's undeniably very pretty. So pretty. I wanted her attention on me. I want her. I want my wife. I want what's mine. I'll do everything to get her.

Tagos sa kasalanan. Lunod sa tukso. Trixie Manalastas thought she had it all figured out—loyal assistant by day, quiet and composed by night. Pero nagbago ang lahat nang mapilitan siyang tumira sa iisang bubong kasama ng lalaking bawal niyang pagnasaan—ang brother-in-law niyang si Lance Dominic "Dom" Arriola. Tall, brooding, at laging naka-sando na parang kasalanan ang bawat muscle, si Dominic ang tipo ng lalaking tinitingnan mo lang dapat… pero hindi mo dapat hinahangaan. Lalo na’t kapatid siya ng fiancé mo. Pero paano kung sa bawat titig niya ay may banta ng tukso? Sa bawat sulyap, parang hinuhubaran ka na? Sa bawat gabing tahimik, may mga ungol na gustong kumawala? At paano kung isang gabing walang kuryente, sa ilalim ng init ng dilim, hindi mo na mapigilan ang sarili mo—at ang kasalanan ay hindi lang basta nangyari, kundi sinadya? This is not your typical love story. This is a tale of temptation, guilt, and a kind of pleasure na bawal pero hindi mo maitatangging gusto mo. Because sometimes… the one who ruins you, is the one you crave the most.
