Your life is in danger.”He took her away and revealed a devastating secret: Amara's mother had not died in an accident. She had been murdered after discovering that Amara's uncle, Victor, was stealing the family fortune.Adrian had known her mother years earlier. Before her death, she made him promise to protect Amara.“There's only one way I can protect you,” Adrian said.“Marry me.”Amara thought he was crazy, but she agreed to a six-month marriage contract.Living together, they slowly fell in love.Then Vanessa showed Amara evidence suggesting Adrian had been present when her mother died.
