Just a hidden flash drive and a dangerous trail leading straight into the city’s criminal underworld.Using my hacking skills to track his killers, I get caught in a lethal trap—only to be dragged into the shadows by the underworld’s most feared enforcer. Cold, ruthless, and dangerous, he claims he’s under orders to keep me alive. He didn't want a liability, and I didn't want a handler. But trapped in close quarters, our bitter tension explodes into a reckless, electric obsession we can't control.Then I hack into the syndicate’s master file and spot the truth.The sinister mark of the world's most ruthless crime empire isn't just a file on my screen—it’s tattooed right over his heart, directly above his skin where my hands rest at night.Now, wrapped in the arms of a man who might be my savior or my father's executioner, I have to play a deadly game of chess. Because in this web of lies, the closest monster might be the one in my bed.
