Fresh out of Oxford with a degree and striking beauty, Amanda Jackson lands her dream position at Triston Limited, one of the world's most prestigious corporations. Her new life promises success—until she meets her boss, the dangerously magnetic Drake Triston, whose icy demeanor masks an irresistible pull that threatens her resolve. As desire and duty collide, Amanda discovers that escaping her past is far more complicated than she anticipated. Old secrets resurface, entangling her in a web of fate she never saw coming. Caught between ambition, passion, and the ghosts that haunt her, Amanda must decide what she's willing to sacrifice to protect her heart. Can she resist the darkness that surrounds Drake Triston, or will their connection consume them both? **Note:** This is an original work. Unauthorized copying or reproduction is strictly prohibited.
