"Her past made her cautious. His world made him dangerous. Together, trust was their only chance at love."
--------‐-------------------------------
La'Shae' Morrison has sworn off love. Between raising her two-year-old son and managing the chaos at her law firm's front desk, she has no time-or patience-for men. But when Xu Minghao walks into her life, he challenges everything she thought she knew about trust. On the surface, he's the perfect man-rich, powerful, and devastatingly handsome. But beneath his tailored suits and polished charm lies a dangerous secret.
Minghao didn't expect to be drawn to the sharp-tongued secretary with walls higher than his own. As the CEO of a thriving tech empire-and the leader of an underground mafia-his life is built on control and calculated risks. Yet, something about La'Shae' makes him want to put his power aside and prove he's a man worth believing in.
As their worlds collide, secrets unravel, and enemies close in, La'Shae' must decide if she's willing to take a chance on the one man who could break her... or finally teach her what it means to trust again.
A story of love, danger, and the walls we build-only to have the right person tear them down.
