Evelli, a sharp-tongued underrated chef, never expected a debt to lock her in the penthouse of a cynical billionaire. She does not expect to recognise him, Russo Sinclair, as the man from that night or for his mute seven-year-old nephew to choose her within 72 hours. But the job comes with a deadly secret - one worth billions, lives at stake, with a clock ticking. As betrayal, hate-to-love collision, and cover-ups pulls her deeper, she became a target in his world. Now Russo has only one choice: protect his empire or burn it down for the woman he was never supposed to want.
