There was this girl, Calytrix Eliseo Navira, who had worked so hard to become the perfect actress. She smiles for the cameras, knows her lines by heart, and strives to make her parents proud---it's what she's done her entire life. But, deep down, Cal feels like a puppet and wishes to be free of the spotlight. All that she ever wanted is to be free.
Then a twist happens when she suddenly becomes engaged to Han Ruan, the lead guitarist of the Nocturnal Boys, the man who once broke her heart and the last person she swears she never wants to see again!
Ruan despises almost everything about her. She's reckless, charming, and unpredictable, making it difficult for him to see her as anything other than trouble.
But deep down, Ruan harbors a lot of resentment and anger toward Cal's powerful family for the mess they've created in his life. It all began when his reputation suffered because of the elite's rules, which he has been eager to ignore, and he's blaming them for it entirely.
They didn't really want any of it. They weren't interested in following the rules. It was all for show.
But, when hatred and dangerous secrets collide, Cal and Ruan are forced to confront an unexpected question. What happens when a girl looking to escape meets a man who has nothing to lose?
