Sofia Volkov is the embodiment of warmth-her smile is radiant, her laugh infectious, and her presence feels like a safe haven. But beneath her sunshiny exterior lies a heart haunted by the shadows of a love that once broke her. Now, love is something she fears, something she hides from, even as she tries to be a beacon of light for everyone around her.

Zayden Meadows is her opposite in every way. Intimidating, calculating, and cold, he's a tech genius who has handled his father's empire with his ruthless ambition. Love, to him, is nothing but a weakness-something he has vowed to despise after witnessing the suffocating devotion his parents shared. He's a clone of his father but darker, harsher, and unyielding.

When their paths collide, sparks fly-and not the good kind. Zayden sees through Sofia's bright exterior, while she resists his domineering presence at every turn. What begins as mutual disdain evolves into a dangerous obsession. Zayden doesn't just fall for Sofia-he falls hard, fast, and irrevocably.

Sofia, terrified of the intensity Zayden brings into her life, tries to push him away. But Zayden isn't the type to give up. He doesn't believe in love, but for her, he'll learn. For her, he'll fight. And if he has to stalk her every move to protect her, so be it.

Will Sofia's warmth melt Zayden's icy heart, or will the darkness in his soul consume the light she so desperately clings to?

In this enemies-to-lovers, dark romance, with an age gap and forbidden allure, their love will test boundaries, challenge beliefs, and uncover the secrets they've both been hiding.
