What happens when the girls who were chosen to fight... start falling for the very ones they're meant to destroy? Will they feed their sexual tension or?? Dark secrets. Deadly power. Forbidden desire. Welcome to the world where loyalty cuts deep, and love might cost everything.

Nyezi Bhengu has built her career and life around being a wife. For years, her identity was tethered to her husband - as the "Real Housewife of Durban", "umfazi kaBafo", and "uNyezi kaSmiso". His sudden death upends Nyezi's life when, bound by isiko lokungenwa, she is forced to marry his older brother, Mnisi. Mnisiwokuhle Bhengu has a personality very few would describe as "lighting up a room". Reserved, and perpetually serious to the point of appearing cold, where Smiso was the life of the party, Mnisi is the brooding figure who leaves just as the fun begins. He wears detachment like armour, keeping himself unapproachable and at a distance from everyone - especially Nyezi. Forced into a union they're both less than glad to find themselves in, will forced proximity be enough to break down the walls Mnisi has so carefully constructed, or will tradition condemn them into a loveless arrangement they cannot escape?
