He called her a witch the first time he saw her mismatched eyes. If only he knew how right he was. By day, Alex sketches buildings and fades into the background of her architecture class. By night, she's Aisha-golden-eyed, hypnotic, the star dancer at the city's most exclusive men's club. Every sway of her hips pays for her twin brother's last hope of survival. And every secret she keeps brings her closer to the edge. Then he walks back into her life. Michael Romanov-wealthy, reckless, and infuriatingly charming-hasn't changed since his family ruined hers. Now he's her classmate, her reluctant study partner... and the only man who makes her forget her mission. He's slept with half the city, but with her, he's oddly... careful. As their nights grow longer and their defenses thinner, Alex is torn between revenge and something far more dangerous: trust. But when desperation forces her into a reckless deal with the club's shadowy owner, the line between salvation and self-destruction blurs. He thinks he knows her. She thinks she hates him. But the truth? It's dancing just out of reach... A steamy, emotionally charged romance about secrets, sacrifice, and the terrifying cost of letting someone see the real you. ✨ Tropes you'll find inside:
