“Chloe woke up paralyzed by drugs in a hotel suite right after her own engagement party. Through the door, she heard her fiancé, Chase, and her best friend, Jenna, plotting her ruin. Jenna had drugged her and was bringing up two men to completely destroy her reputation. "Once the scandal breaks, the family will break the engagement to save face. Then, my proposal to Kayla will be perfectly logical," Chase laughed coldly. To them, Chloe, the adopted daughter, was just an obstacle to be cleared. Jenna wanted a corporate job as payment for ruining her. If their plan succeeded, her cold adoptive mother would discard Chloe without a second thought. She would be publicly humiliated and left with nothing. The betrayal burned through her veins. She had spent years trying to be the perfect daughter and fiancée, only to be sold like cheap merchandise just to make room for the newly found "real" princess. She refused to be their sacrificial lamb. Using the last of her strength, Chloe shattered a water glass, escaped the hotel, and ran blindly into the freezing New York rain. With nowhere else to turn, she stood directly in the path of a speeding black Maybach. "Save me for one night, and in exchange... I'll give you me." She looked into the icy eyes of Julian Beaumont, the ruthless billionaire and sworn enemy of her family, ready to trade herself to the devil to burn their perfect world to the ground.”
