All Lingling had ever wanted was a normal life.
A wife. Maybe kids. A dog running through the backyard. Lazy Sunday mornings, grocery runs, arguments over whose turn it was to do the dishes-ordinary things that most people took for granted.
Instead, she got a gun. A covert operations team. And a life spent killing for a government that never seemed to care whether she lived or died.
After seventeen years of missions, bloodshed, and running from one battlefield to the next, Lingling decides she's had enough. She fakes her death, steals a new identity, and disappears to Japan, determined to build the life she's always dreamed of.
For the first time in years, she's happy.
She has a boring corporate job. Friends who think she's just another employee.
And a growing crush on Orm Kornnaphat, the beautiful accountant from work who has absolutely no idea who Lingling really is.
It's perfect. Until a business trip sends Lingling back to Bangkok.
One accident. One viral video. One glimpse of a face that was supposed to be dead.
And suddenly the past comes crashing back into her carefully constructed life.
Old enemies resurface.
Former allies become hunters.
A dangerous frenemy from her past begins closing in.
And the commander she betrayed is finally ready to finish what he started.
Now Lingling must protect the woman she loves while staying one step ahead of the people who trained her, hunted with her, and know exactly how she thinks. Because escaping her old life was the easy part. Keeping it from destroying her future is something else entirely.
And for Lingling, things have never gone well for very long.
Especially when love gets caught in the crossfire.
