Amyris Jackson is driven by her desire to become a supermodel. At eighteen and against her father’s wishes, Amyris moves to another country, hoping to make her dreams a reality. Before she can hit the ground running, her life takes a turn she hadn’t expected after meeting and marrying Ivo Yannik—a man who lured her into the union under false pretenses. Six years later, Amyris hardly recognizes the woman she’s become after being forced into escorting by an abusive husband. Having exhausted every opportunity to escape, she’s about to give up, but a chance encounter with the owner of a jewelry shop changes everything. Frances ‘Foxx’ Matisse requires two things from women: they must be beautiful and taken. As a man who prefers having no strings attached or feelings involved, he has his sights set on pursuing Amyris. Foxx’s plan to get the beauty in his bed is halted after learning about her husband’s affiliation with the Matisse Corporation. Refusing to cross a line punishable by death, he tosses the idea of having Amyris, but fate has other plans. Foxx and Amyris’s lives collide repeatedly until they can no longer resist temptation. While Foxx is providing Amyris a safe space, he breaks his own no-feelings rule and they grow closer. Knowing the risk of their affair, they continue to explore what could be. The odds are stacked against them, but could they make it work, or will the bylaws keep them apart?
