Valeria is the daughter of famous cartel leader, Felix Acacio. Breaking her strict father's number one rule, she risks it all to be with her bodyguard, Aron Romero. Little do they know Valeria's father is not the biggest threat to their relationship.
***
Born into wealth and danger, Valeria Acacio has lived her entire life behind the gilded gates of her father's empire - a man whose fortune is built on cocaine and fear. To the outside world, Félix Acacio is a powerful businessman; to those who know better, he's the drug lord who controls the border. Valeria's world is lavish, suffocating, and ruled by three unbreakable rules: never ask about her father's business, never touch the product, and never fall for one of his men.
But when she breaks the last rule with Aron Romero, her bodyguard and the son of her father's late best friend, her life begins to unravel. What begins as stolen glances and quiet confessions spirals into an illicit love affair that threatens to destroy them both. When Félix discovers the truth, he sends Aron to Juárez on a mission Valeria knows is a death sentence - forcing her to choose between loyalty to her father and the man she loves.
Consumed by guilt, Valeria becomes determined to save him. Yet the closer she gets to danger, the more she finds herself relying on Diego Rivera, the guard assigned to keep her safe - a man whose quiet strength and loyalty begin to stir feelings she never expected.
An emotional, high-stakes cartel romance about forbidden love, betrayal, and the line between devotion and desire.
