Aria is the beautiful, smart, and beloved daughter-praised by everyone and trusted with their father's company. But her twin sister, Alina, lives constantly in her shadow-unseen, uncelebrated, and forced to work under Aria's command. When Aria causes a major financial loss to a powerful, mysterious company owned by an unknown billionaire, their father is forced to pay a large sum in compensation. But it's not enough. In return, the company demands an unusual form of settlement: the CEO responsible must marry their CEO until the debt is cleared. To protect Aria, their parents make a secret decision. Alina is forced to marry the unknown CEO in Aria's place. She's terrified-of the marriage, the man, and the new life ahead. No one knows what he looks like, and he's never appeared in the media. He's a complete enigma. Alina's first night in the mansion is unsettling-she's kissed from behind by a stranger while humming a song known only to her and a long-lost love. The kiss stirs something in her, something painfully familiar. And when she finally meets her husband, Darren Blackwood, she's stunned. He looks familiar-too familiar-but she can't place him. As days pass, memories from eight years ago start surfacing. Clues hidden in the house, songs, and gestures slowly unravel the truth: Darren is the man who once loved her and vanished from her life. The heartbreak returns-but so does the spark. Their love story reignites, beginning with slow trust and deep emotion. But Aria, full of jealousy and rage, isn't done. She wages a subtle war to tear them apart, using lies and manipulation to destroy Alina's newfound happiness. Yet, against the odds, and despite the pain of the past, Darren and Alina prove that love-true, hard-earned love-can conquer even the deepest wounds and fiercest enemies.

Jasmine pulled the sheets over her chest and counted all the mistakes she made in her life. Out of all those mistakes, this has got to be the worst one. Not only did she not think this through, she also risked losing her job doing so. She couldn't help it. This mistake is also the sexiest and the most exciting she has ever entangled herself with. It wasn't even a debate. A naked man rustled with the slightest movement from under the sheets, Jasmine tilted her head over to him and saw the mound of his dark hair, he's laying on his belly facing the other side, his arms folded over his head on top of the pillow. She was suddenly reminded of the long evening they shared, the wild night of mind blowing sex. Hours upon hours of it, that she was swollen and dry by the time Jun Long finally wore himself out to sleep.
