Rafael Struick Kecil

One brother hired her. The other can’t let her go. She only meant to play pretend. She never meant to steal a heart… or hide his heir. Gianna “Gigi” Rae Cuevas grew up with nothing, hustling on the streets just to survive. But one reckless act of bravery—saving billionaire Rafael De Luca from a thief—throws her into a world of wealth and power. Her reward? A deal too good to refuse: pretend to be Rafael’s girlfriend for one month. It should have been simple. Until Rafael’s older brother walks in. Leandro De Luca is cold, ruthless, and impossible to resist. He believes Gigi is a gold-digger. He wants her gone. But the more he fights it, the deeper he falls. When lies, betrayal, and scandal tear them apart, Gigi vanishes. Years later, she returns with the one secret that could destroy them all. A forbidden romance. A dangerous bargain. And a love that refuses to stay buried.
