Eva has dedicated her whole life to others, unlike Eros, who only lives for himself. After decades of giving, she finally decides to take whatever she wants and Eros is right here with her, leading the way.
*****
Evora has been groomed since infancy to be the perfect successor to her family's empire. She's spent the better part of her life caring for others, giving little thought to her own desires. It's expected of her, it brings her pride, and it gives her purpose.
Eros Karas is her polar opposite, but somehow, she finds herself drawn to him. He never does anything for anyone, lives his life to the fullest without a care for gossips or judgments, and drowns himself in all sorts of pleasures. Pleasures Evora is tempted to taste.
Upon reaching her 30th birthday, the brutal reality of her existence dawns on her. She's been living a life imposed on her, one she hasn't chosen, one she doesn't want. As everything crumbles around her, Eva lets herself fall down the rabbit hole, and Eros is delighted to show her the way.
But after so long protecting her precious image, where does she draw the line? In her journey of debauchery and sins, how far will she follow the man by her side?
The very man who told her he couldn't be trusted.
The man she definitely shouldn't trust.
