"Then don't let them take me." The words were barely a whisper, swallowed by the chaos raging beyond the crumbling wall where they hid. Tiwa Adeyemi didn't survive Lagos's most dangerous market raid just to fall for the man who pulled her out of it — especially not one she insulted the moment they met. She's a billionaire heiress who walked away from her empire — hunted by a 50-million-naira bounty, and desperate to stay free. Tunde is a Mainland bus driver with a guarded past and no business making her problem his own. They shouldn't trust each other. They certainly shouldn't want each other. But forced proximity changes everything. Stolen glances in the dark. Hands that linger too long. A fierce, inconvenient hunger neither of them can outrun. Tiwa, who fled a gold-plated cage, never expected safety to feel like this — rough-edged and real and dangerously close to love. And Tunde, who buried his past beneath years of grinding survival, never planned on someone like her melting his heart. Someone wants her found. Someone wants her silenced. And the truth that binds them may cost everything… Or give them the one thing they never saw coming.
