Spice: 5/5
Red-hot, high-tension dark romance.
The vibe
Harper has spent months trying to outrun her family—and the guilt of betraying the man she thought she might love. But when her cousin Ivy is murdered, Harper is dragged back into everything she tried to leave behind. She’s determined to find the truth… until the police decide they already have their suspect.
Hero.
Dangerous, brilliant, infuriating—and the man Harper once betrayed. Fresh out of jail and desperate to never go back, Hero wants nothing to do with Harper or a murder investigation that puts a target on his back. Ivy was killed only days after his release, and the timing all but guarantees he’ll be arrested again.
Harper knows him well enough to recognize the truth: Hero didn’t do it. But if she can’t prove it, he’ll be sent back to prison for a murder he didn’t commit. So she makes a desperate proposition—work together to find the real killer and clear his name. Hero agrees… with a warning: if he goes down for Ivy’s murder, he’s taking Harper down with him.
As they retrace Ivy’s final days, Harper and Hero uncover buried family secrets, a widening circle of suspects, and threats that escalate fast—because someone is determined to stop them. And as they’re pulled deeper into the killer’s deadly game, Hero finds his heart snatched up by the one woman he swore he’d never let close again.
