Once, he was her salvation. Now, he might be her ruin.
Lilliana De Luca lost four years of her life-after a betrayal so deep it shattered her world. During that time, she was hidden away, left to recover in silence while the life she knew continued without her.
Now, she's awake, and everything has changed.
Nico Luis Torres, the man who betrayed her and set her life on a path of pain and loss, stands in her way once more. The man who once held her heart now threatens to break it all over again.
With a war brewing on the horizon and the stakes higher than ever, Lilliana must decide whether to trust the man who ruined her life or fight alone.
In a world filled with lies, betrayals, and burning desire, will love reign, or will it destroy everything they've ever known?
This is a story of love that was broken, of enemies who were once lovers, and of a war that will force them to choose: destroy each other, or fight side by side.
