César Pinheiro is a billionaire CEO with a reputation that precedes him: ruthless in the boardroom, untouchable in private. He hasn't let another person get close in years — literally. A psychological condition makes even a handshake unbearable. His empire runs on fear and distance.
Then Bella walks into his warehouse for her first day of work, and something shifts. For the first time in his life, César doesn't flinch at a woman's touch. He doesn't understand it. He doesn't like it. And he can't stop thinking about her.
But César's world is nothing like Bella's. Behind the corporate empire lurks a criminal underworld — arms deals, dangerous alliances, and a family fractured by greed and betrayal. His own mother will stop at nothing to destroy the one woman who broke through his walls. And the closer Bella gets to César, the more she becomes a target.
She came to the city chasing a dream. She never expected to fall for a man who could give her the world — or burn it all down trying to keep her safe.
