She was fire and his greatest temptation ... he was ice and the only one who could cool the dark desires that burned inside her. Mina Lee Impulsive, daring, and free-spirited, Mina Lee has every intention of living life on her own terms even if it means defying the demands set by her family that she must marry a man she doesn't love no matter how attractive and pleasant he might be. Destined to inherit billions of her family’s empire, Mina has other plans than succumbing to her parents' demands. Bastien Thomas Focused, ambitious, rigid, Bastien Thomas has no intention of becoming distracted and losing sight of the prize, especially the kind of distraction Mina Lee brings. Determined to become one of London’s most successful lawyers, his acceptance to the prestigious Oxford University comes with a lot of ultimatums and requirements. The ultimate being success at all costs. She’s everything he should reject, simply because her mere presence makes him forget the reason behind his well-laid out plans. It should matter that her family has already chosen a husband for her or that they would never accept him as he is neither Asian nor of aristocratic wealth. Yet he cannot deny the desire to have it all. The great love story as well as the successful career. And she too cannot deny the impulse to follow her heart, even if it comes at the price of losing it all. No matter how hard they try to resist, their forbidden, untamed desires are a temptation too great to deny. Will love cost them everything?
