Victoria Thornton lives in Seattle in a cozy little house and is employed at the job of her dreams. As curator of an art museum, she has left the glamor and glitz of Los Angeles and her mother's high society lifestyle far behind. Her nightly video chats with her beloved daddy are all that tie her to her childhood in a posh mansion in a high-class neighborhood. Then her carefree world is shattered when she gets a phone call from her mother telling her that her father has committed suicide. She rushes back to LA to attend the funeral and help her mother pick up the pieces. Then she learns that all her mother wants from her is to date the man who recently took over her father's failing business-and to take the business back from him by any means possible. Trouble is, Rafael Rivera is an incredibly attractive man, who is as attracted to Victoria as she is to him. Gradually, she begins to find cracks in her mother's story of her father's failing business, who Rafael Rivera is, and even in the suicide itself. Lena, the household cook, is Victoria's only ally whom she can trust and count on. And even Lena holds secrets that will rock Victoria's world.

In the wake of a devastating loss, a woman must unearth the dangerous secrets of her past to protect the future, forcing her to confront the powerful family-and the man she once loved-who shattered her life. Three months after the tragic hit-and-run that killed her vibrant best friend, Cheryl, Clara Kirsh is barely holding herself together for the sake of her young daughter, Ashley. Grief-stricken and paranoid, Clara is haunted by the feeling that Cheryl's death was no accident. When a box of Cheryl's belongings arrives from the vet clinic, it reveals a chilling, hidden message: "HE KNOWS." Driven by a mother's fierce need to protect her child, Clara's investigation pulls her back into the orbit of the Radleys, the tech dynasty that has always been a source of pain. Eric Radley, the arrogant, brilliant CMO of Xela Tech and Clara's former boss, is the only one who might hold the keys to his father's secrets. Their history is a tangled web of explosive professional rivalry and a single, reckless night in Chicago that ended in heartbreak and radio silence. As Clara digs deeper, she discovers Cheryl's secret relationship with John, a mysterious mechanic from Xela Tech who also vanished without a trace. The threads connect to a much darker truth: the hit-and-run that killed Clara's own parents over a decade ago. She uncovers a monstrous conspiracy at the heart of Xela Tech-Project Prometheus, a dangerous neural technology developed by her own parents that is being tested on unsuspecting victims on a specific stretch of highway. Clara realizes she is not just searching for answers; she is racing against a ruthless enemy who will kill to protect their secrets. The silence between her and Eric is filled with eight years of unsaid words, longing, and a love that might be their only chance at survival-or the thing that destroys them completely.
