Emerson Leone - 23, average features ( according to her)student at NYU studying to death, struggling not to cry and wishing for love. Gone through many heartbreaks but the saying - "Fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me " cannot apply to her, why you will read.  And also she is elder daughter of Marie and Johan Leone, the millionaire business person, owner of construction company. But beware... smiles and blank looks hide dark and sinister


Adrien Stone - 28 , Multi billionaire bachelor, CEO of Stone Enterprises - a multinational company, but the company is still under his Grandpa's ownership. Also is hot and sexy as hell with hazel eyes and brown hair, but hey, aren't they always playboys... No he is not but still don't do serious relationships and has occasional one night stands. But beware.. looks can be deceiving. 


What happens when to protect the company, Adrien has to fulfill his grandpa's wish and Emerson can never have a say in the decision, they are tied in a not so  𝘩𝘰𝘭y matrimony. 
This isn't cliché even if the younger Leone daughter is angry for not being chosen as the bride, cause some bonds are destined to be destroyed, some secrets are ment to be spilled and some hearts are fixed to be destroyed again. Let's see how can Emerson survive her nth heartbreak.. Will she break or snap? 

*********************

"Don't think this marriage is something, its nothing and means nothing to me. Let's make this clear so if you find myself with another women or relationship don't cry and think I cheated because there was nothing to be cheated on in the first place." 
And just like that she heard and felt the deep crack in her heart for the '𝘯𝘵𝘩 𝘵𝘪𝘮𝘦'

"Did you know that you just pull me in? I can't stop thinking about you." Kieran's eyes are shut, his head against the back of the couch, while making his confession. I guess he had moved in the few moments I'd been in my own thoughts. "Is that a bad thing? I feel it too." He opens one eye and grins. "No, I don't think so. I just don't know if I'm ready." "Ready?" It's silent for a few moments before I feel his warm, rough palm on my bare thigh. It's like all my senses are ignited when he touches me. All I can feel is his hand, all I can smell is his beautiful manly scent, and all I can see is him in front of me, the rest of the world invisible. "Is it okay that I'm touching you?" I let out a deep breath and lean closer, whispering near his ear. "Is it okay that I want you to touch me more?" Kieran's eyes open, his blazing blues stare into my dark brown ones, a slight growl coming from his throat.
