For three years, Amara has tried everything—candlelit dinners, sexy dresses, even swallowing her pride—to melt the heart of her powerful, distant uncle-husband. But when his bold secretary flaunts her victory and family secrets spill, Amara faces the ultimate betrayal: in this house, love is just another transaction. On the night of their anniversary, she must decide—stay and lose herself, or break tradition and fight for her own happiness, no matter the shame.
Crowned as the Omu’s only son, Amaka’s true identity as a girl is a secret woven into palace walls—one slip could cost her life and her mother’s. Every day, she faces the suffocating pressure of tradition, friendship with powerful heirs, and the threat of exposure, all while her own body betrays her. If her secret leaks, everything her family sacrificed will burn in the fire of palace betrayal.
