To the girlies who crave devotion that borders on obsession. And the men who know loyalty is a choice —one you make everyday, even if it costs blood. Isabella's twenty-fifth birthday ended in scandal and humiliating headlines she never saw coming. The last person she expected to step in? Her best friend’s older brother: Emilio Salazar—mafia Don, corporate king, the man she was never supposed to touch. To contain the damage, they strike a deal: a fake relationship to silence the press and protect her name. It was supposed to be simple, mutually beneficial… and temporary. Except Emilio doesn’t pretend. He watches like he owns her. Touches like he’s been waiting. And somewhere between the lies and the cameras… she realizes the truth: he’s wanted her for years. And now that he has her? He’s not letting go. She should run—from him, from this, from the darkness wrapped in tailored suits and quiet threats. But every glance drags her deeper. Every touch blurs the boundaries between them. And every second at his side feels like stepping closer to something she won’t survive. Because with Emilio, nothing is just a game. Not the lies. Not the danger. And definitely not her. EXCEPT, there is more at stake than just her reputation; her heart, her friendship… everything. How long before she stops running? How long before fake becomes real? And will she survive what comes next? With every glance, every turn, every little change… nothing will ever be the same.
