Reece Blackwood is a wealthy aristocrat, businessman, and the successor to an internationally established family empire. Intelligent, calculating, socially charismatic, and exceptionally patient, he has spent most of his life carrying the memory of a tragedy that destroyed his childhood.

Years ago, his parents were killed in a hit-and-run. He was there when it happened. He remembers the vehicle and its license plate. The people responsible were Gregory and Marsha Miller — the parents of the person he would eventually marry.

What began as a carefully orchestrated revenge scheme became something Reece never anticipated: genuine love for the very person he originally intended to use.

Falling in love, however, has never meant abandoning his revenge.
