I came to Dubai with one suitcase, two hundred dollars, and a promise I made at my father's grave.Find the man who destroyed our family.Make him pay.I never expected that man to be my boss.Damien Osei is everything Dubai promises and everything it hides. Powerful. Dangerous. Magnetic in a way that makes you forget he is the kind of man who ruins lives without looking back.He doesn't know who I am.He doesn't know what he took from me.He doesn't know that every smile I give him is one step closer to his destruction.But something is going wrong with my plan.The more time I spend with Damien Osei the harder it becomes to remember why I hate him.The more he looks at me like I am something worth protecting the more I want to believe it.The more I learn about the man behind the power the less certain I am about everything.He destroyed my father.He doesn't deserve my forgiveness.He definitely doesn't deserve my heart.So why does it feel like he already has it?She came to destroy him.She didn't expect to need him.

He was the cost of war. But what happens when the enemy becomes the only person you trust?
