Some cities change the way you see the world.
Others change the way you see yourself.
When twenty-six-year-old journalist Jane Carter is sent from New York to Istanbul for what should be a routine three-month assignment, she expects history, beautiful architecture, crowded streets and another article to add to her portfolio before returning to the life she has carefully planned. Love is the last thing on her mind.
Then she meets Demir Arslan.
Young, brilliant and impossibly private, Demir has built one of the world's fastest-growing technology empires while hiding behind walls that no interviewer has ever managed to break through. The media calls him a genius. His competitors call him dangerous. Jane quickly discovers that neither description comes close to the truth.
As their interviews turn into conversations, and those conversations become something neither of them can explain, Jane is drawn into a world where ancient palaces stand beside modern skyscrapers, where family loyalty means everything, and where every sunset over the Bosphorus seems to blur the line between destiny and choice.
But Istanbul has its own secrets.
Old rivalries refuse to stay buried. Powerful enemies are watching every move Demir makes. A charming businessman with a complicated past enters Jane's life with motives that are far from simple, while someone much closer to her is willing to destroy everything she has built for a chance at revenge.
One betrayal is enough to shatter even the strongest trust.
Forced to choose between the career she has always dreamed of and the man she never expected to love, Jane discovers that the greatest danger isn't losing her story.
It's losing herself.
