“Wedding days are supposed to be happy, right? But who said this world was ever fair?”
Clarisse Hamilton’s life crumbles when her parents’ tragic death leaves her enslaved to cruel relatives. Forced into a sham marriage with the notorious Victor Arthur, she’s publicly humiliated at the altar: “Who the fu*k is this?” he snarls, rejecting her like trash. Yet salvation arrives in Christian Charles—a billionaire enigma who claims her with a vow: “You’re my woman now. I’ll be your shield and land.”
But Christian’s protection comes at a price. Behind his molten-gaze lies a web of secrets tying her dead parents to his empire. As Clarisse’s forbidden talent for fashion design resurfaces—“Did you draw these?” gasps a maid—she uncovers truths darker than her scars. Yet Alice, Victor’s vicious sister, hisses: “No one takes what belongs to me!”
From shattered vows to glittering runways, Clarisse must navigate a world where privilege devours innocence. When Christian murmurs “You look absolutely stunning” while hiding lethal agendas, she questions: Is he her redemption… or a prettier cage?
