Synopsis: Sherry Francelia ay isang babaeng tumatakbo mula sa isang impyernong hindi niya pinili—isang mundo ng dugo, kasinungalingan, at kapangyarihan. Sa desperasyon, gumawa siya ng isang mapanganib na desisyon: ang lokohin ang isang lalaking mas mapanganib kaysa sa sinumang humahabol sa kanya. Si Levim Devereux ay isang kilalang mafia boss—malamig, walang puso, at walang sinasanto.

Ang kanilang ugnayan ay nagsimula sa isang kasinungalingan—isang delikadong laro ng panlilinlang at kapangyarihan. Ngunit habang lalong lumalalim ang kanilang koneksyon, nagiging malinaw na may mas malaking pwersang gumagalaw sa kanilang paligid. Nang bumalik ang multo ng nakaraan, napagtanto ni Sherry na walang makatakas sa mundong pilit niyang tinatakasan—lalo na kung ang lalaking dati niyang niloko ay siya na ring kinatatakutan niyang mawala. Sa pagitan ng pagnanasa at panganib, pagtataksil at katotohanan—sino ang unang bibigay? At sa isang mundo kung saan ang tiwala ay isang bagay na maaaring pumatay, paano mo malalaman kung sino ang tunay mong kakampi?

In the fifth year of my spiritual practice, my phone suddenly exploded with messages. [Aria, why aren't you replying? Are you really that petty?] Puzzled, I opened Messenger, and froze. My cousin, who never seemed to measure up to me and always went out of her way to oppose me, was getting married, and she expected me to attend. "Sorry, I've been busy lately. I won't be able to make it," I replied politely. However, my courteous response only fueled their ridicule. "Stop pretending! You haven't kept in touch with your family for years. Are you too embarrassed because your life is such a mess?" "She won't even come to her own cousin's wedding? How heartless!" "Let me guess, the real reason she can't come is she can't afford a wedding gift." One cutting remark after another appeared, until Betty Stewart stepped in, feigning concern. "Come on, don't be so harsh on Aria. We're family, after all." "If she's really struggling, I could ask my husband to help her get a cleaning job." Then she sent me the digital invitation, the gold lettering gleaming. When I saw the groom's name, my pupils constricted in shock. Joseph Clark? Wasn't he the short-lived husband who had spent three years sucking up to me just to extend his life?
