Six years after a devastating betrayal, you’ve learned that trust is a luxury you can no longer afford. So when you return home one stormy night to find a severely injured stranger bleeding beneath your apartment window, helping him should have been the last thing on your mind. But one act of kindness changes everything. Months later, the man who vanished without a trace returns—not as a stranger, but as your company’s new CEO. Kazuya “Kaz” Shinoda. Cold, brilliant, and impossibly unreadable, he’s the heir to one of Japan’s most powerful corporations… and the successor to a feared yakuza bloodline hidden behind wealth, influence, and tailored suits. As corporate warfare, family betrayals, and dangerous secrets threaten to tear everything apart, you find yourself drawn to the one man everyone warns you to fear. But beneath his ruthless reputation lies a lonely soul who remembers every kindness and protects what he loves with terrifying devotion. In a world where loyalty is priceless and betrayal is unforgivable, loving Kazuya Shinoda may be the most dangerous choice you’ll ever make. After all, some names are forgotten. And some become etched into your heart— like his name in the rain.
