Alexander is used to control, but something about Lena makes him want to break his own rules. He offers her success, luxury, and protection — but the cost is her heart. What begins as a professional bond soon turns into a secret affair that neither can resist. Lena knows she’s playing with fire. Alexander has secrets, enemies, and a past that could destroy them both. Yet every touch pulls her deeper into a world she swore she’d never enter. In a city built on power and lies, will their forbidden desire burn everything down — or will it teach them what love truly means? A story of passion, danger, and temptation — where love is the riskiest game of all.
