Sera Chen needs $200,000 to save her mother from a rare cancer. The only offer comes from Elena Black, matriarch of the Black empire: become a virgin surrogate for Elena's son, billionaire Damon Black, in exchange for the money. Sera accepts…but not for the reason Elena thinks. Damon's healthcare conglomerate denied her mother's life-saving treatment six months ago, killing her father from stress and now slowly killing her mother. Sera plans to carry the baby, take the money, and then leak the surrogacy contract to the press, destroying Damon's "family-first" reputation. But when she meets Damon, he's not the monster she imagined. He's cold, yes…but also haunted. He agrees to the surrogacy only to appease his mother, and he has no idea Sera is the daughter of a patient his company killed. As they're forced into close quarters, Sera's revenge plot falters. She begins to see the man beneath the billionaire…and discovers that the policy that ruined her family was kept secret from him by his corrupt CFO. Now she must choose: destroy Damon to save others, or protect the father of her child and abandon her vengeance forever.
