She was always fire. He just never let himself burn—until now.
Lamija Begović commands every room she enters—sharp-tongued, power-dressed, and born to rule Sarajevo’s most feared empire. As the daughter of a dynasty, she’s been trained to lead, to conquer, to stay untouchable.
Ayub Selimović has lived in her world for years—polished, quiet, and far more dangerous than anyone realizes. After his father died driving for the Begović family, he was brought in and raised alongside them. Not as an outsider. Not as a charity case. Just… never quite seen.
Until now.
When Ayub is reassigned to Lamija’s division, the line between power and tension begins to blur. She doesn’t remember all the ways he’s protected her. But he remembers everything—every glance, every brush of proximity, every second he held his tongue when he wanted her instead.
She wasn’t supposed to notice him.
And now she can’t look away.
