I come to Chicago to broker peace between our families—not to fall for the man I was raised to hate. Rafael Moretti is power wrapped in cold restraint, heir to an empire built on loyalty and blood. One reckless night shatters every rule I swore to follow.

He keeps his distance with clipped orders and silence, but he notices everything I don’t say. When danger circles, he steps in front of me without hesitation. Beneath the polished suits and ruthless reputation, there’s a man who protects what’s his.
As negotiations fracture and stolen glances deepen, I fall harder than I intended. But someone inside our walls is betraying us. When the truth comes out, loving Rafael won’t just divide our families—it will destroy the empire he was born to defend.
