The last place Pedri González ever imagined finding himself was in a Parisian sex club. A place pulsing with shadows, music, and sins he's never dared to name. He's there only because of a lost bet, surrounded by laughter that isn't his, a stranger to everything around him.
And yet, in the dim light of a private room, he meets her.
Elizabeth Blanc. The Diamond.
She shines, but not like something polished. More like something cracked, still catching the light despite the damage. There's a sadness in her beauty, a secret in her smile. Pedri knows he should leave. Instead, he makes a silent promise: to save her from the life she never chose.
But when he returns, she's gone. No trace. No goodbye. Only the echo of her voice, haunting the spaces she once occupied.
Fate, however, isn't done with them. When their paths cross again in Barcelona, Lizzy has escaped, but not entirely. Her past still hunts her, shadows closing in with every step. And as their worlds collide under the harsh glare of fame and scrutiny, Pedri must face the ultimate test: how much is he willing to risk for a love that could destroy them both?
Because loving her means defying everything: fame, loyalty, even himself. And some rescues come at the cost of everything you are.
A thrilling, emotional story about love, obsession, and the fight for freedom, set against the glittering lights and unforgiving shadows of two cities that never sleep.
