Aryka Alcazar has a past that she wants to forget.
In order to hide that, to run away from that. She learned how to survive the hard way. If being cold, distant, and unreadable means keeping alive. She will do it. She built walls so high no one could reach her. Not even herself.
Until Kaiden Sandoval walks into her world.
A young billionaire who's annoying but with a heart patient enough to wait. He sees beyond the facade.
But Aryka isn't the type to fall easily. She pushed him away. She tried to run away from the feelings.
But what happens when the one person you try to push away... is the one person who refuses to leave?
Can he tame her?
Can he break down her walls?
Or will loving her break him?
"I want to erase everything. Including myself."
"Even if you push me away a hundred times, I'll choose to find my way back to you."
