Jomiloju Dorotoye, 21, is the perfect daughter of one of Lagos’s most powerful political families. Beautiful, innocent, and well-guarded, she was sent abroad for safety. But when she returns unannounced after three years, her journey home spirals into a nightmare. She boards the wrong bus… and wakes up in the den of a deadly underworld boss known only as Steve—a man with blood on his hands and secrets in his past. What starts as a kidnapping ordered by her father’s political enemy quickly transforms into something far more dangerous… and seductive. But Steve isn’t what he seems. Once a pawn in a mafia war, now a self-made crime lord hiding from his demons, Steve sees a chance at redemption in Jomiloju’s eyes. Torn between orders and desire, danger and love, loyalty and freedom, he must decide: Will he protect her from the enemies hunting them both… Or destroy her to save himself? She was never supposed to love a villain. But what if he’s her only way to survive? If you're into mafia bosses, forbidden romance, emotional scars, and a heroine who finds her power—this story will own your heart.
