They were each other's safe place... until the truth turned their love into a weapon.
Maya thought she knew Ethan - the man who made her laugh, who kissed her like the world might end tomorrow, who made her believe in forever. But one rainy night, a stranger walks into a cafΓ© and shatters her world with six devastating words: He was there when they died.
Her parents' murder was the shadow she could never outrun... and now she discovers the man she loves was part of it. Ethan swears he didn't know, swears he's been trying to protect her ever since - but the blood between them is impossible to wash away.
As dangerous enemies close in, Maya is torn between walking away for good... and joining Ethan in the fight that might finally bring her parents' killers to justice. But every step closer to the truth drags her deeper into a deadly game of love, hate, and betrayal.
In a world where trust can kill and passion can burn everything to ashes, one question remains:
Will love be their salvation... or their final destruction.
