After spending thirteen years abroad, MJ Billings, the twenty-eight-year old multibillionaire and CEO of Billings Corporations; is forced to return to her birthplace; a place she would rather forget. MJ's return is every bit displeasing as it sounds. Under an alias, May Smith, she is forced to work as a PA and serve a man she had hoped to never cross paths with again. One misunderstanding leads MJ Billings and Logan Parker down the road of no return as they play dirty games that may result in the people around them getting hurt.

Those who know who MJ Billings really is, know that behind all the power and anonymity; lies the real devil. She may be charming to some and intimidating to others with her sardonic smile and devious smirk; but she is heartless and vengeful, and never does anything without a reason. MJ Billings is a ruthless dictator who knows no boundaries. But what could be keeping her grounded in South Africa? How much more can she tolerate, and how long is it going to take before she finally snaps and unveils the devil in her?

Claudia Stone is a strong woman with a soft heart. She has always been one to help people in need, backed up by the fact that she runs an organization of people to work for the mankind's disadvantaged's welfare. So, when Pasqual Romano, an ingenious businessman with a heart of gold, asks for her help―asks for a favor out of her―she should automatically be able to say 'yes,' shouldn't she? Well, probably not. Because this particular favor has nothing to do with Claudia's intellect or her NGO. It is, instead, all about putting up appearances, and playing make-believe. She's never been much of an actress, but she is a great businesswoman. So if the shoe fits, what's the harm in exchanging a few acts of kindness? Well, she's about to find out. And so is he. ◾ ◾ ◾ ◾ ◾ ◾ ◾ ◾ ◾ ◾ ◾ ◾ ◾ ◾ ◾ ◾ ◾ ◾ If he was being honest, Pasqual felt like he'd never met a woman like Claudia. Such a powerful personality, and so dedicated to the betterment of mankind. She seemed like the kind of woman who knew exactly what she wanted in life, and wasn't afraid or even hesitant to go after it. And, of course, she was also darn beautiful. Shaking his head, Pasqual got into his car and started the ignition. Nothing good was gonna come out of falling for someone as enigmatic, established and ambitious as her. He'd probably end up with a broken heart and she'd be none the wiser. Also, he didn't even know if he would ever meet her again. What was the point? If only he'd known that fate had other plans. ◾ ◾ ◾ ◾ ◾ ◾ ◾ ◾ ◾ ◾ ◾ ◾ ◾ ◾ ◾ ◾ ◾ ◾ ↪ 𝗰𝗶𝗹𝗰𝗵𝗲 𝘁𝗿𝗶𝗹𝗼𝗴𝘆: 𝘣𝘰𝘰𝘬 𝘰𝘯𝘦 ◂ ◾ ◾ ◾ ◾ ◾ ◾ ◾ ◾ ◾ ◾ ◾ ◾ ◾ ◾ ◾ ◾ ◾ ◾ rankings; #68 [newadultreads] ⇁ oct, 12th, 2020 #196 [cliche] ⇁ march 1st, 2022 #432 [chicklit] ⇁ feb 23rd, 2022

And what happens when her geeky looking husband happens to be the lord of everything sinister she never dreamed of doing? And what blossoms between them when she comes out in her true skin, which is far from being what society has known her to be? ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SNEEK PEAK: To everybody's eyes, she was dressed aptly, draped in a plain red saree, wearing her long hair down. I wondered how everyone thought of her as being a cultured and well-versed lady. She undeniably was far from this. Just like that saree she had donned, there were numerous layers to her personality, which went beyond the fortress of one's imagination. If anything, she was fathomless, like a river with limitless depth. You would be tempted to be part of its existence, but once you dive, you would dwell in it for the rest of your life. I am Kabir Saaho, a neurosurgeon, with my wife, Adi Saaho, the Cardiologist in my arms. We met through our parents and got married promptly, without any knowledge about each other. If you ask me for the reason, I was yet to discover it myself. In conclusion, this is Day 5 of our marriage and we hated each other's guts, but this was not our first night together. This is our story.
