“Ellery pushed open the door to her fiancé's Manhattan penthouse, only to find a strange pair of red stilettos tossed across the foyer. Hiding inside the closet, she watched Edgar, the man she had dated for two years, tangled on the sofa with a rookie model. Worse, she heard him laugh and admit their engagement was just a cheap lie to secure his family trust, planning to ship her off to rot once he got the money. When Ellery recorded the affair, threw the diamond ring in his face, and walked out, Edgar's retaliation was swift and ruthless. He forced her father to freeze her bank accounts and lock her out of her own home. He even had her university tutoring jobs canceled, leaving her penniless before cornering her in the freezing rain to drag her back by force. Shivering in a muddy alley with a shattered phone, Ellery felt a suffocating despair. Why did her own family trade her safety for a cheating scumbag's investment? Was she really going to be crushed by his power just because she refused to swallow his disgusting betrayal? Just as Edgar's bodyguards lunged for her, a fleet of black armored SUVs tore through the rain and pinned them to the asphalt. The untouchable Wall Street billionaire, Darius Mendez, stepped out of a Rolls-Royce and wrapped his warm coat around her trembling shoulders. "From this second on, she is under my absolute protection."”
