Rebecca "Becky" Armstrong has the perfect life. She runs a charming café in suburban Bangkok, bakes the best brownies in the neighborhood, and has been happily married to successful architect Freen Sarocha for ten years. Together, they're raising three kids in their peaceful gated community.
Becky is known as the sweet one-soft-spoken, gentle, always ready with a warm smile and homemade cookies. While her confident wife Freen handles the big decisions, Becky manages their home with quiet grace.
But when armed men break into their house one night, everything changes.
In ninety seconds, Freen watches her gentle wife disarm four trained operatives with brutal efficiency. No hesitation. No fear. Just lethal precision that shouldn't belong to a café owner who burns toast.
"Pack one bag each. We have ten minutes."
Suddenly they're on the run-kids terrified in the backseat, Freen demanding answers, and Becky driving like she's done this before. Because she has.
Ten years of marriage. Ten years of "business trips" and "corporate burnout" stories. Ten years of secrets hidden behind that sweet smile.
Now someone from Becky's past wants her dead, and the only way to survive is for Becky to become someone Freen doesn't recognize. As they race across Southeast Asia with mercenaries on their trail, Freen is forced to trust this dangerous stranger wearing her wife's face-the one who teaches their kids to evade capture, who speaks languages Freen never knew she knew, who can kill without blinking.
Freen is furious. Betrayed. Terrified.
And undeniably attracted to this side of Becky she never knew existed.
Who is the woman she married? How much of their life was real? And can love survive when everything was built on lies?
Some secrets are worth keeping. Others are worth killing for.
And Becky's secret? It's both.
