In my past life, I took a falling boulder for my team leader, Cole. It cost me my left leg, dragging me from the world's summit down into a wheelchair, where I could only gaze up at the sky. He married me out of guilt, giving me a decade of material comfort but nothing more than a polite, suffocating distance. It wasn't until I was on my deathbed that I discovered he’d tossed all 199 Polaroids I’d taken of him—each one a memory of my love—into a dusty corner. Meanwhile, a photo of another woman was framed and locked away in his safe. As my life slipped away, all I received from him was cold indifference. The last words he ever said to me were, "Next time, don't shove that boulder aside for me." Only then did I understand: he would rather have died than be shackled to me by a life debt. When I opened my eyes again, I was back before it all went wrong. Fate had given me a second chance. This time, I would sever this cursed tie between us for good. But when the boulders came crashing down again, he was the one who shoved me out of the way. "This time, it's my turn to protect you."

The worst night is standing on an auction stage in a red dress, being sold like property to the highest bidder. Her father was the most feared Don in the criminal world. Now he is dead, and she is the price someone is collecting. Just as a greasy old man opens his mouth to claim her, a single bid silences the room. A number so large the auctioneer's hands shake. Mia never sees the man's face. Only his eyes. Dark. Calm. Familiar in a way that makes her stomach drop. The man who buys her is Dante Reyes. The new Godfather. The most powerful criminal in the country. And the same boy her father pulled from the streets twelve years ago and raised like a son. He is no longer that boy. He is cold. Controlled. And he wants something from Mia that goes far beyond ownership. As the walls of his mansion close around her, Mia begins to see the truth. Dante did not buy her to save her. He bought her because she is the last piece of a plan years in the making. A plan that started the night her father was murdered. A plan Dante may have helped write. The girl who walked into his house as a prisoner must decide. Break under his control, or burn the whole empire down from the inside.
