Sophia Reyes was the best lawyer in the city. Then she became the most hunted. Old Sterling had trusted her with a will that could topple his empire. That trust made her a target. Victoria Sterling, his elegant and ruthless widow, and her ambitious adopted son Caleb would do anything to destroy that document. But the most dangerous weapon against Sophia was not a gun. It was Luna Reyes, a media mastermind who had once been Sophia's colleague, friend, and bitter rival. Luna had never forgotten the day Sophia beat her for the promotion. Now, hired by Victoria, Luna turned the press against Sophia. In one week, Sophia went from a brilliant legal mind to a public liar, a con artist, a woman no one trusted. She lost her firm, her reputation, and her home. She ended up in the slums, broken and alone. Then he found her. Ethan Sterling. The black-sheep heir, the man the world called a cold, woman-hating crime lord. He was the true inheritor of the will that had nearly killed her. He offered her a deal: his protection for her legal mind. She accepted. Together, they walked into the war. Betrayal. Murder. A hundred-year-old fortune. Sophia had been destroyed by the world. With Ethan, she would burn it down and build something new on the ashes.
