26 years old Nicholas Jackson has some secrets of his own, but how well can the truth be hidden when it haunts his every breath? And has being Toronto's eligible bachelor helped him get past it fully. He is a ruthless, heartless, arrogant, cold businessman trained to smirk and fake a smile while being numb inside.
