SIN IN THE SHADOWS

Selene Blackwood was born into wealth, groomed for legacy, and left to rot in the wake of a scandal that nearly destroyed her. Now she’s clawed her way back—scarred, fierce, and determined to outrun her past. But when she crosses paths with Lucian Wolfe—billionaire, former flame, and the man who once broke her in all the wrong ways—old sparks ignite into a fire neither of them can control. Lucian is more dangerous than ever. Cold. Calculated. Unforgiving. But when Selene’s name resurfaces in connection to a decades-old psychological experiment known as *Halcyon*, he’s forced to confront the truth: the woman he once thought he could bury is tied to something far bigger—and far darker—than either of them imagined. As secrets unravel and bodies fall, Selene and Lucian find themselves entangled in a game of power, obsession, and revenge. But while they circle each other in a war of control and longing, someone else is watching… and waiting. Liora Blackwood—Selene’s blood, and the mind behind Halcyon—has risen from the shadows. And she’s not here for reconciliation. She’s here for *ruin*. Bloodlines are weapons. Love is leverage. And survival means choosing who to betray: the devil you loved… or the one who made you.
