After being used as a human shield for her adoptive father's beloved biological daughter, gifted painter Sloane is abandoned on a lawless island, where she fights to survive for three brutal years. Rescued by the icy and powerful CEO Iris Shen, she returns to New York—only to discover that Iris brought her back because she looks exactly like her late lover.
While playing the role of a fragile replacement, Sloane secretly gathers evidence to expose her stepsister's stolen paintings and reclaim the life that was taken from her. But corporate sabotage, a forced engagement, and the ghosts of Iris's past threaten to keep them apart. As their dangerous game of deception turns into an irresistible attraction, Sloane must fight for her revenge and her identity. Can Iris finally let go of the woman she lost and choose the fierce, brilliant woman standing before her—or will Sloane always be trapped in someone else's shadow?
