Elena Lombardi and Ezra Angelini were never supposed to be enemies.
Once inseparable childhood friends who grew into each other's first love, they were torn apart by a brutal betrayal that shattered their families and turned allies into rivals. Years later, the underground world of contract killing has made them legends on opposite sides of the war.
Elena is the lethal heir to the Nightwatch Corporation-daughter of its feared founder and a hitwoman forged by legacy, loyalty, and blood. Ezra, known only by his infamous codename Crimson, is one of the most dangerous assassins alive, feared and respected in equal measure.
When Ezra accepts a high-paying bounty, he doesn't expect the target to be the woman he once loved.
Forced into a deadly game of deception, hidden motives, and lingering desire, Elena and Ezra must navigate missions gone wrong, old wounds that refuse to heal, and a chemistry that never truly died. With enemies closing in and the past refusing to stay buried, love may be the most dangerous weapon they carry.
Because in a world where trust gets you killed, falling for your enemy again might be the ultimate risk.
Enemies. Lovers. Killers.
And neither of them is playing by the rules anymore.
