Cia never expected her life to change after leaving her job at a small café, but she is hired as the personal secretary of Ryo, the ruthless CEO of the largest hotel empire in Asia. Known throughout the industry as the “Asian Hotelier Queen,” Ryo is feared for her impossible standards and icy demeanor.

After working beside her for several years, Cia realizes that her admiration has become love. Ryo’s teasing comments, quiet acts of care, and rare moments of vulnerability reveal a side of the CEO that no one else sees. Beneath the polished exterior is a woman haunted by a traumatic childhood that left her emotionally isolated and terrified of losing the people she loves.
