From the back cover

For a year, Mia and Julian were madly in love — until Julian died in a car accident. Everyone expected Mia to fall apart, yet she shed no tears. Two years later, she walks into the wrong private room at a club and finds Julian alive, kissing another girl. His friends insist the crash left him in a coma, that he woke with amnesia, and that they hid it all to spare her. Julian coolly offers to honor their engagement anyway. Mia smiles and says they have never met, because on the day he "died" she received a video of him confessing he faked his death to keep playing the field.

As Julian's friends accuse her of throwing a tantrum, a sharp pain seizes Mia's abdomen and she flees the room. Outside, Arthur Sterling — Julian's best friend, the icy heir who always seemed to despise her — is waiting. He carries her to his car, buys her supplies, and takes her to his villa, where his careful tenderness unsettles her. Only now does Mia learn that the fake-death scheme was Arthur's idea all along, and that the man who sent her the video is far more calculating than she knew.
