After being pushed off a cruise ship and murdered by her treacherous fiancé, federal prosecutor Evelyn Carter travels back in time. She wakes up in bed with Damian Valentino, the feared king‑pin of New York’s most powerful mafia clan. Knowing all hidden secrets of his tragic past, Evelyn strikes a risky alliance deal with him: she provides classified law‑enforcement intelligence for his protection, and they join forces to smash the corrupt “Shadow Operation” scheme. Together they uncover high‑level official‑mob collusion, dig up old murder truths, survive assassination attempts, kidnapping and frame‑ups. Though trapped in constant suspicion, dangerous bargains and life‑or‑death crises, the pair gradually grow genuine affection. They defeat crooked senators and corrupt FBI brass, dismantle criminal networks, pursue justice for long‑buried victims, and finally embrace hard‑won love and a new life.
