She’s not who he thinks she is. He never would’ve fallen for her if he knew the truth. All Bianca wanted was a quiet escape. A chance to mourn in peace before returning to a life in shambles after a public scandal. Pretending to be rising supermodel Britney O'Prey? Definitely not her smartest move. Especially not on Cupid’s Cove, the private island owned by tech billionaire and notorious playboy, Will Hunter. Every year, Will invites a hundred elite guests to his personal paradise, offering pleasure with no strings attached. Once on Cupid's Cove, he sets his sights on Britney. She’d be the face of his new airline. He’d get a one and done hook up. It should have been that simple. Until they meet. She’s not what he expected. Sinfully beautiful yes, but also fiery, witty, and clearly running from something. Far too complicated for the likes of him. He should’ve walked away. Instead, he welcomes the challenge. He wants her. Badly. When he finally seduces her, he’s convinced a one night stand will cure his obsession. He’s wrong. One night becomes two, then a month-long tryst neither of them can quit. But Bianca is hiding more than her identity. She's a broken hearted woman with nothing left to give. She told herself it was just a fling. He told himself she was just another fuck. Now he's falling fast... And she has no idea what to do. Because the woman he can't keep his hands off doesn't exist. Does she take a leap of faith and offer him the truth about who she is? Will he want the real woman behind the lie? Or was the fantasy all he ever truly loved?

"Ad! Apa nama hubungan ini? Waktu pernah kasih kita kesempatan. Apa kita bisa miliki lagi?" Kedua mata kami saling menatap mencari jawaban. Kurvaku menurun. Begitulah aku memandang hidup yang ku jalani di akhir usia 20an. Di saat rencana tidak berjalan sesuai impian, apa aku masih memiliki mimpi tersisa? Tentang dia yang pernah berperan penting dalam hidupku, namun keasingan jadi pengganti keakraban antara aku dengannya. Jika aku bertemu lagi dengan Ad, apa aku harus menemuinya atau bersembunyi saja? karena sinarku sedang hilang, aku belum siap menampakkan sisi gelap dari masa lalu yang masih ku hindari. Perpisahan kala itu, membuatku ragu. Ada kisah antara kita yang belum tuntas. Apa mungkin itu tanda, untuk kembali memperjuangkan cinta atau lebih baik berhenti saja? Di masa belia kita kala itu, atau di masa kita terus bertumbuh, melewati berbagai fase hidup menjadi dewasa. Tentang aku dan Ad, apa sudah berakhir? Cinta ini akan bertumbuh dan menetap untuk dirinya ataukah dia?
