This story follows Lia, a 23-year-old daughter of a wealthy businessman named Nero. Her father assigns her to learn the ropes of the business with his right-hand man, Rhaim, who is 45. Lia has a difficult past and is holding onto some secrets, but she has always admired Rhaim from a distance. However, Rhaim hasn't seen little Lia in a long time. What could go wrong?

This is a dark, delicious, and intense read. It jumps straight into the spice and grips you. The storyline is mysterious, featuring broken and possessive characters who cannot resist temptation. The male main character (MMC) is very controlling and dominant, while the female main character (FMC) is submissive and not shy about calling him Daddy or Sir. The spice hits and makes me so weak. Cassie has a series called the Transformation Trilogy which is also dark but fantasy. It’s as if she captured that story and rewrote it in a more contemporary, dark, and workplace setting that's very different but has similar vibes. Overall, I enjoyed this read, and the audiobook is brilliant. I highly recommend it.
