In a home where love is reserved for someone else, Anya Carter survives in silence. Ignored by her parents, overshadowed by her perfect sister, and burdened with every chore and insult, Anya still chooses kindness. She dreams not of escape, but of connection-of being seen, heard, and cherished.
But the world has never been kind to girls like her.
When her father attempts to forge a dangerous business alliance with Mikhail Volkov, the ruthless young head of the world's most powerful criminal empire, all eyes are on Anya's glamorous sister to seal the deal. Until Mikhail sees something no one else does-a quiet girl with a fire he never expected.
Mikhail has lived his life surrounded by blood, betrayal, and shadows. Love was never part of the plan. But there's something about Anya's softness that shakes the foundations of his brutal empire-and his heart.
He was never meant to feel.
She was never meant to matter.
And yet, in a world where darkness reigns, she might just be the only light he never knew he needed.

TELL ME WHO I AM! | Dark Romance | Psychological Thriller |
She wakes up in a stranger's bed, a diamond ring glimmering on her finger - a symbol of promises she cannot remember - a vow forged in a past that's been stolen from her. Everyone says she's fortunate. That she's blessed. That a beautiful home, a devoted fiancΓ©, and a spotless future await her. But when her pulse falters under his gentle touch... when her skin shivers instead of warming - something deep within resonates with the alarming feeling that something is profoundly, dangerously wrong. He insists it's for her own safety - that something awful happened, that healing simply takes time - but there's a fire in his eyes, a possessiveness he cannot mask. And somewhere in her mind, a locked box rattles against its chains. And at night, in the quiet... she dreams of another man she does not recognize. Until one day he steps out of the shadows. Not with flowers, but with fire, with danger, with a confession forged in the pure agony of a love forgotten. Not with comfort, but with a storm in his eyes and a voice that trembles when he says- "You promised to remember me," he whispers. "Even if the whole world made you forget." He is not kind. He is not patient. His love is wild - a consuming force - a sin that feels more elemental than redemption. The moment he reaches for her, the carefully woven lie starts to unravel, thread by thread, until the awful, beautiful truth emerges. She doesn't know his name. But her soul does. Now, stranded between two men - the man who offers refuge within a perfect illusion and the man who holds the key to a catastrophic reality - she must make a choice. To stay safely oblivious... or to break free and remember the life that was stolen from her. Because someone made sure she forgot. And they'll do whatever it takes to keep it that way. Some truths are dangerous - and some memories are worth everything.Complete
