Harry Styles is more than the successful lawyer he appears to be. Charismatic, cunning, and dangerous, he's also the leader of an underground mafia empire, using his legal expertise to outmaneuver his enemies and keep his empire untouchable. For him, life is a game of power and control - until he meets Aariah, a kind-hearted, church-raised Caribbean-American woman who wants nothing to do with his world.
Aariah's life has been shaped by tragedy and discipline, her days filled with quiet routines and a moral compass that refuses to waver. But when a chance encounter at a Halloween party thrusts her into Harry's orbit, her world is turned upside down. Drawn to her innocence and defiance, Harry is determined to make her his, even as Aariah struggles to resist his intoxicating charm.
As their paths intertwine, Aariah begins to uncover the dark truths behind Harry's pristine lawyer façade. Caught between fear and attraction, she must navigate a dangerous web of lies, betrayal, and forbidden love.
