Enter: An assassin, Levi
Enter: A relatively normal lady, Simone.
Simone lives a life where the basic needs are hard to come by. Add to the fact that she has four sisters to fend for, her efforts are damn near Nobel Prize worthy.
Levi wakes up, ends lives, occasionally reads, goes to bed and then repeats the process all over again. He's a dangerous man despite his calm and aloof appearance and it doesn't help that he has a huge bounty on his head.
Levi gets shot taking down a huge crime syndicate and that's pretty much how he envisions his life ending. Surprisingly, Simone, a total stranger comes to his rescue and let's him hide out at her place, despite how it's destined not to work.
Put together a man with a bounty on his head, a woman with too much to lose, throw in a healthy dose of trauma, teenagers, toddlers, sharing a bed with a stranger and you're bound to have a royal mess.
Let's not forget the most important part, they can't fall for each other because that just takes the stakes up, you don't just wake up and get attracted to an assassin so you can be used as mafia bait, basically destined not to work.
That's what this is, a mess that shouldn't work. But it does. And everything goes to shit because of it.
A story about love, assassination, family and healing from trauma.
A simple girl became one of the strongest woman, named Jules. But that costed her far more than anyone's expectation, losing what she held preciously. Pain become a part of her daily life at the early age of 17. And she lived with it for far too long.
Unable to take it and trying to move forward to change, to live a normal life, she leaves her world behind and starts anew at the age of 33. But when she finds the one person who she genuinely cares about, her past comes back to haunt her, to take her back into the familiar but painful world of secrets, a world she was made for.
Sebastian is a normal man with a normal life who finds himself attracted to Jules at their very first meeting. Slowly, but surely, falling in love with her. But he quickly learns that she is not what she seems to be. A bag of lies and burden of past on her shoulders all the time.
While she cannot avoid going back, Jules doesn't want to lose the person she has grown to care. But finding out about her past filled with lies and secrets, will they accept her? Will they give her a chance, to remain close to her? Will they believe her words, or what they see? Or will the past haunt her, chase her, forever?
