Nora Bennett became a cop for one reason: to find out who really killed her father, Officer Daniel Bennett, in a case the department closed as "gang violence, unsolved." Three years later, fresh out of the academy and already marked as too small, too soft, too green to survive real police work, Nora is ambushed during a routine stop and left for dead on the outskirts of town. She's saved by Kane Ryder — president of the Iron Wraiths motorcycle club, the same club her father's case file names as the prime suspect. What starts as a debt neither of them wants becomes an undeniable pull. Nora is drawn into Kane's world of loyalty, violence, and a code of honor the department could never understand — even as her investigation starts uncovering evidence that the Iron Wraiths didn't kill her father. Someone inside the police department did, and the club has been the department's cover story for eight years. As Nora falls deeper for the man she was trained to hate, she has to decide what she's willing to burn down for the truth — her badge, her department, or the man who might be the only person who ever told her the truth about her father.

‎Elena Vargas has spent eleven years building a life she is proud of: a beautiful home, a devoted marriage, a daughter she would do anything for. When an anonymous phone call shatters that life in a single morning, revealing her husband’s affair with her closest friend and hinting at financial secrets that go far deeper, Elena does not fall apart. She gathers evidence. She says nothing. She waits. What happens next, she did not plan for. A confrontation with Daniel spirals into something violent and irreversible: Elena disappears, presumed dead, swept into the kind of tragedy that neighbors discuss in hushed voices for years afterward. But Elena is not dead. She is recovering, in secret, in a facility upstate, and she is using every hour of her recovery to become someone new. She returns to the world as Rey Reyes: leaner, harder, and unrecognizable to the people who once knew her best. She settles in the small Hudson Valley town of Carrow, close enough to the lives of Daniel and Claudia to watch them, to learn, to wait. She has a plan. She has time. She has, for the first time in years, nothing left to lose. But Carrow has its own complications. Marcus Bellamy, a journalist with too-good instincts, begins to see past the surface of the woman he knows as Rey. And as Elena moves closer to the truth of what Daniel has been hiding — a financial conspiracy with consequences far larger than one marriage — she finds herself forced to choose between the revenge she came for and the life that is, without her permission, beginning to take root. ‎
