“Kyra was seven months pregnant when she realized her perfect marriage was a carefully constructed lie. As a therapist, she had been counseling an anonymous client who constantly boasted about her wealthy lover and their secret newborn son. It turned out, the lover was Kyra's endlessly devoted husband, Kieran, and the client was his ex-girlfriend. While Kieran claimed to be working late to secure a better future for their baby, he was actually at the hospital NICU, tenderly caring for his illegitimate child. He even packaged his secret business merger with his mistress's family as a loving "gift" for Kyra. Trapped by his flawless lies and lacking concrete proof, Kyra was forced to play the blind, understanding wife, all while enduring her aristocratic mother-in-law's calculated humiliations. She couldn't understand how the man who had built a flawless five-year marriage could be so monstrously deceitful. She was completely isolated in a powerful family that viewed her as disposable. How was she supposed to protect her unborn child when her entire reality was a suffocating trap? That was until a tense family gathering, where her mother-in-law forced her to act as a servant and deliver tea to Kieran's terrifying, legendary adoptive brother, Easton Cain. Standing in the dark garden, Kyra accidentally overheard the ruthless billionaire coldly ordering someone's legs broken. The teacup shattered on the stone floor, and as she looked up in terror, Easton's predatory gaze locked directly onto hers.”
