Mia Hearst just wants to live a happy and peaceful life. A young, passionate, published author, she clings to hope despite her troubling past and mistakes, never doubting that good things will come. When she finally achieves what she sees as a simple and joyful life, someone she encounters takes it all away, leaving nothing but shattered hopes and broken dreams at her feet. He's the only one who has ever made her give up on the goodness in life-and he may be the only one who can bring it back to her, too.
Markovick Costanzo has left his past behind and become someone who won't stop until he gets what he wants, even if it means eliminating everything in his way. As the CEO of one of the oldest and most powerful business and real estate corporations, he believes in logic and reality, never relying on emotions, which he views as mere weaknesses. To stand at the top, he believes one must abandon the very things that people say make us human. With no mercy or moral values left in him, he is a devil in human disguise. Once his eyes fall on her, he knows she is his-his possession-and he takes her, even if it means extinguishing the light that makes her an angel in this tyrannical world, until... she turns his world upside down.
An angel and a devil can never love, but here, it's just the devil, unwilling to accept the path to redemption. Yet, even he knows... her light is the only one that has ever seeped into his dark soul.
