“Accused of murdering his powerful uncle, a top government official, billionaire Stan George fakes his death and vanishes, assuming a new identity to uncover the truth behind the crime that destroyed his life. In his new existence, he falls in love with Vera Wills but imposes one firm condition: she must not bear his child. Not yet. Three years later, Vera's world shatters when she suffers a brutal miscarriage that steals her unborn child and leaves her on the brink of death. Surviving with a nearly damaged womb, she emerges from the hospital with one purpose. REVENGE. All evidence points to Stan as the mastermind behind her suffering, and she is determined to expose his secrets which she believes exists. But just as she was close to gripping the proof she needs to destroy him, Vera stumbles upon a murder scene and is kidnapped. Once again, Stan is accused, this time of another murder in the very city where he sought refuge. The police are after him, he is forced to flee, but escape may no longer be an option. He must clean the mess. What happens when Vera realizes she's been chasing the wrong enemy all along? The true culprit has been right beside her, hiding in plain sight, while the police hunt an innocent man. She realizes something even more devastating: her true love is slipping through her fingers, perhaps forever. His trust has been shattered”
