Ava Clarke infiltrates Voss Enterprises as Lucian Voss’s personal assistant, intent on finding evidence that he orchestrated her sister Lily’s mysterious death. Armed with forged credentials and a false name, Ava’s mission is clear: get close, get proof, and get revenge. But Lucian isn’t the monster she expected. He’s secretive, yes — but also protective, wounded, and haunted by something she can’t name. When a failed attack targets her instead of him, Ava realizes she’s entangled in a much larger web. Someone doesn’t want either of them alive. As desire ignites between them, truth and lies begin to blur. Ava must face an impossible choice: expose Lucian and destroy the only man who makes her feel alive… or trust him and uncover a secret powerful enough to kill them both.
