And just when she believes it's the end, Cassian returns—alive. Now Raine must face the most dangerous twist of all: the man she never truly knew is back… and he is not alone in what he wants.

Para tantanan ni Robert sa panggigipit at pamimilit si Alexa na pakasalan ito ay pinakiusapan ng dalaga na pakasalan siya ni Travis; ang lalaking natagpuan niya na walang malay at duguan sa gilid ng kalsada habang malakas ang buhos ng ulan. At bilang pagtanaw ng utang-na-loob sa kanya ay pumayag si Travis sa pakiusap ni Alexa. Lihim na natuwa ang dalaga pagkat may lihim itong pagtatangi sa lalaking iniligtas niya kahit na ilang Linggo pa lamang silang magkakilala. Ngunit pagkatapos ng kanilang kasal ay sinundo ito ng mga kamag-anak ngunit nangako ito na babalikan siya para kunin. Isang Linggo ang lumipas ay sinundo siya ng tauhan ni Travis at isinama sa hotel kung saan ito nakatira. Ngunit sa halip na mahigpit na yakap ay isang contract marriage agreement ang isinalubong nito sa kanya. Napansin niya na ibang-iba na ito sa Travis na nakasama niya sa probinsiya. Seryoso at arogante ito na malayong-malayo sa mabait at mapagmahal na Travis na kilala at pinakasalan niya. At higit sa lahat ay natuklasan niya na isa pala itong miyembro ng mafia at tumatakbo bilang pinuno ng mafia organization. Paano haharapin ni Alexa ang tila naging estrangherong asawa lalo pa at itinatago nito sa lahat na siya ay asawa nito? Makakaya ba niyang makita na may kasama itong ibang babae o ipaglalaban niya ang karapatan niya bilang nag-iisa at legal nitong asawa kahit pa may contract agreement silang pinirmahan?
