He’s the love she left behind, and the most dangerous man in the city. Six months after vanishing to build a “clean life,” Ava finds herself in a war between money, loyalty, and desire.
As power shifts and betrayals ignite, Ava must choose between the safe lie that imprisons her and the dangerous truth that sets her free. In a world ruled by bloodlines and boardrooms, love might be her most reckless crime.
