Modern Beauty and the Beast with a twist meets dark romance thriller set in a futuristic world.
Humanity has destroyed the Earth, and the population's been forced to live underground to protect themselves from the scorching sun...until the Skydome is built. New Pangea, the silver city above, thrives beneath its protection, but only for those who can afford the luxury.
Iselin Villarreal is an addict and prostitute who's done unspeakable things to survive. She's not a creature meant for the glittering world up top, but when her pimp sees an opportunity to use her to infiltrate the home of the Skydome's billionaire creator, Jakob Stone, he seizes it. If the heist goes well, they would be set up above ground for life. What neither of them expected was for Stone's estranged son, Adrian Novak-a notorious playboy and black sheep-to suddenly return home and fall possessively and dangerously in love with her, or worse, that he'd do everything in his power to keep her.
