To the world, they look like the perfect couple, but behind closed doors? They're locked in a dangerous game of trust, secrets, and survival. Because in a world of velvet knives, even the softest touch can still draw blood. (The photo used for the book cover is not mine. © Credits to the rightful owner.)
