Siana lives in the shadows, a waitress haunted by a violent past. Her parents were murdered by a ruthless mafia, leaving her with nothing but a burning need for revenge. Every day in the casino, she gathers whispers, patiently plotting her payback. But one night, a dangerous encounter forces her into the path of Rhys Daemont, the heir to a rival crime family. He's everything she despises-arrogant, powerful, and undeniably tied to the world that destroyed her life.
Yet, he saves her from the very men she hunts. Rhys knows more than he lets on. He knows Sia's true identity and her secret quest. With a cunning smile, he proposes an alliance: a fake romance to keep her safe, and a shared mission to take down their common enemy. Now, bound by a lie and a hunger for justice, Sia must decide if she can trust the man who embodies everything she hates. Can their dangerous partnership survive the deadly world they navigate? Or will these ties of vengeance twist into something far more complicated, threatening to ignite a love they never saw coming?
