She tried not to think about what happened to her so many times, but some people reminded her of her mistake every day. Her mom and her sister don't know what she has gone through and for the world, she was the perfect daughter, but those who have known her secret had abused her both mentally and physically. She was thinking that her life would turn a bit more normal once she got a job that would keep her mind at peace, but her life turned to good once she stumbled upon Jake Romano. The CEO of the company where she got the job.

	Jake Romano, a 27 years-old Italian American guy, was living his life according to his father's orders. He may have good friends in his life, but he was searching for the one girl for years that never judged him ever. He was looking for her for years but never found her. He doesn't know her name or her whereabouts, but he never stopped looking for her. Once he stumbled with Reena in a car accident, he never thought in his life that he would be able to know some harsh truth about his friend, who was the wolf dressed as a sheep. He may have been the one who trusted everyone in his life, but after meeting Reena, he got to know some things that were kept under the light.

	They both kept their feelings for each other to themselves as one kept them to keep her safe while he kept them to himself until she told him first that she loved him. Only time would tell if their love story would be good for them in the future or will it create chaos for him and her.
