“Kavya Kapoor has everything-beauty, wealth, and the ruthless drive that built her empire, Kavya's Glow, into one of Los Angeles' top beauty brands. She's flawless, untouchable... until her carefully curated life shatters with four little words from her mother: "You're getting married." The groom? Gerald Van Dyke-arrogant, magnetic, and heir to one of America's most powerful families. He's as infuriating as he is irresistible, and he wants nothing to do with this arrangement either. But their parents are determined to unite two empires, no matter the cost. What begins as an arranged marriage neither of them wants quickly spirals into a dangerous game of pride, passion, intoxicating hunger,and forbidden desire. Gerald's bold, public proposal sparks a fire that even Kavya can't control, while every clash between them only fuels the magnetic pull simmering beneath their hostility. Behind the glittering façades and flashing cameras, powerful forces are pulling strings. Family secrets, hidden agendas,and a legacy bigger than both of them threaten to turn their sham of a union into something far more dangerous... and far more intoxicating.”
