Claudia gave eight years of her life to one man…Damian Frost…she helped him build his dreams and was there for him all the way during his college days…, and believed she was finally getting her happy ending after his company became successful. Instead, she was left at the altar. Humiliated, pregnant, and betrayed, she runs to the only person she thought she could trust , her best friend. But was left devastated when she walks in on Damian and Audrey together. The argument ends with Claudia in the hospital… and her baby gone. With nothing left to live for, she climbs to a rooftop to end it all—only to be stopped by a gentle, dying old man. He turns out to be the patriarch of the most powerful family in San Francisco… and within weeks of knowing him, he makes her an offer that changes her destiny. Marry him. Inherit everything. Start a war the city will never forget. When the old man dies, Claudia becomes the infamous Black Widow …richer than everyone who wronged her, colder than the media’s insults, and a torn to the old man’s family and those who wronged her.She disappears to Harvard for a year, returning as a woman they no longer recognize. But revenge comes with complications….like Julian Knight. Billionaire. Board member. Her secret admirer since college… and the man the old patriarch handpicked for her to marry next. A contract marriage. No love. No s*x. No emotions. At least, that’s what she tells herself. Because in San Francisco, nothing stays buried forever—secrets, scandals, betrayals, or the kind of love that refuses to die. And this time… Claudia isn’t the girl who gets destroyed. She’s the woman who destroys them .
