"Father, I don't remember asking for a maid," he said coldly. "Name?" "Dorothy. Dorothy Reyes." "You start tomorrow." From the moment they met, Dorothy hated him—Xavier Wort, the arrogant billionaire heir with a stare sharp enough to cut through bone. But she needed the job. She needed the money. And she needed to survive. At twenty-two, Dorothy has already lost everything. Orphaned by a mysterious car crash and drowning in debt, she thinks working for Australia's most powerful family might finally give her a chance to breathe again. But living under the same roof as Xavier makes breathing impossible. Cold. Commanding. Married. Untouchable. Yet he keeps looking at her like she's the only thing he's ever wanted. Their chemistry is undeniable. Their attraction is forbidden. And his wife? She has secrets—dark, dangerous secrets she'll kill to protect. When a fake pregnancy, an unhinged stalker, and a sinister family conspiracy collide, Dorothy realizes the crash that killed her parents wasn't an accident. And the closer she gets to the truth, the deadlier it becomes. Just when she thinks she's escaped the nightmare… someone strikes again. Betrayals. Lies. Obsession. Passion that could burn worlds down. Will Dorothy and Xavier survive the truth—or will their love end the same way her childhood did?
