A love story. Is it too good to be true?

Buhlebendalo Asante Zungu, the only daughter of South Africa's most feared mafia boss, Mnqobi "Ghost" Zungu, has lived her entire life in America under the protection of her mother's family, far from her father's dangerous world. Raised to believe that she could have a normal life, free from the shadow of her father's criminal empire, Buhle grows up dreaming of independence and building a life on her own terms. But when Buhle returns to South Africa, eager to reconnect with her roots, she lands a job as the personal assistant to Zolani Cele, the ruthless and arrogant CEO of Ndosi Co & Sons. Despite their differences, an undeniable chemistry draws them into a passionate affair. Just when she begins to fall for him, her world is shattered by the discovery that Zolani is married. Heartbroken and betrayed, Buhle faces another harsh reality-she is pregnant with his child, a future she never imagined. Determined not to rely on her father's power or protection, Buhle struggles to navigate the emotional turmoil of her situation while trying to live the "normal" life she has always wanted. But the shadow of the Zungu name is not easily escaped, and her father's presence looms larger than ever as danger starts to close in. Caught between her desire for independence and the legacy she was born into, Buhle must decide whether to confront her past or continue running from the darkness that threatens to consume her. In a world where love, power, and betrayal collide, will Buhle be able to forge her own path, or will the secrets of the Zungu family pull her deeper into a life she never wanted?

Prologue " I love fearlessly and I want to be loved the way I love. I am worth it, and because I know my worth I don't know how to settle for temporary pleasure or love. So please don't bother me, unless you are planning on loving me the way I deserve to be loved." We both stared at each other not saying a word, afraid to speak next because whatever is said next sets everything in motion. " You should go" I said walking towards the door then opened it. He cleared his throat, then grabbed his jacket mumbling something under his breathe; " See what happening right now? Where we are right at this moment is all your fault" He said his ocean blue eyes staring at me shimmering with tears; " You wouldn't know love because you don't even love yourself. You are the problem Zoey, no one else but you"
