In only four months, two people have been killed in the same house. Everyone concludes the first is a suicide and the second was murder. 

Well, almost everyone. 

Laura Montez was a prosecutor in charge of the murder case, the Assistant DA, the friend to the first victim and the only one brave enough to say it was connected especially since the DA's office was doing everything in their power to make it seem it was not. Trying hard to uncover the truth behind her friend's death, she faces things and people she never knew exist causing her to lose her career, her identity and almost her life. Now she being the only one with a close view to the killer, she is put on a witness protection program when an attempt is made on her life a second time.

She meets Jedediah Michaels. An former FBI agent who left when someone so dear to him was maliciously murdered in front of him but comes back when the killer resurfaces. Intrigued by the mysterious and sexy new photographer in town, he tries to figure her out and feelings start to surface.

Unknown to them they are more connected than sexual tension and undeniable chemistry. They had common goal. Discovering the monster behind the face of their common enemy. MEDUSA.

✅ Complete ✅ When Campbell Kramer accepted a job offer in Manhattan, she never could've imagined what the city had in store for her. Namely, two handsome men who live on either side of her new apartment. One is older, one is younger. One is introverted, one is extroverted. One is serious, one is playful. Both of them want her attention. What could go wrong? ☲☲☲☲☲ ☆Brooks☆ My neighbor was the one to close the distance between us. She did it quickly -- like she was scared the moment would pass away forever if she let another millisecond go by -- and I rested my hand on the side of her face to steady her. Something about my touch must have given her courage. ♡Campbell♡ The men finally greeted each other while I snipped the green, woody stems and plopped them into the tallest mug I owned. Their sentences were short and awkward, and as I rearranged the blooms for the umpteenth time, the realization that they'd told each other what happened hit me like a south-bound train. I don't know why I didn't expect that. They were best friends, after all. I was just their new neighbor. They had no loyalty to me, no reason to keep our time together a secret. ☆Luca☆ Her lips met mine slowly, softly, hesitantly -- like she wasn't so sure kissing her neighbor was the best idea -- and I responded just as delicately. But when her hand made its way into the back of my hair, our bodies melded together like a lust-struck alloy. And the only hope of separating us was to add more heat. ☲☲☲☲☲ Featured by: 📙 @Wattpad • Spicy Summer Reads (July 2024) • Endless Reading Mode 🧡 (Jan 2024) • Summer in the City 🥵 (June 2023) 📕 @Romance • New Adult (June 2024) • Love Triangle (April 2025) 📘 @Ambassadors • Hot Encounters (Dec 2024) Awards: 🥈 Romance runner-up (The Prime Awards 2023)

Law isn't for everyone. Some people sign up for the paycheck, chasing the dream of a cushy life. But Azalea? She had her own reasons. Cases landed on her desk like clockwork - too many to count. And while she didn't tackle them all by herself, the road to becoming a prosecutor turned out to be a lot rougher than she expected. It's not just about knowing the law; this job demands guts and a steel stomach. Prosecuting someone who's defended by the most powerful lawyer; someone you know is guilty - and deserves two decades behind bars - takes a kind of strength most people don't have. And those evidence photos of a mangled body? Let's just say you'd better be ready to lose sleep. In the middle of all this chaos, Azalea crosses paths with a man who clearly knows more than he's willing to admit. His words are careful, his motives murky, and his presence only adds another layer of mystery to unravel. Is he the ally she desperately needs, or will he end up throwing more obstacles in her way? Another secret to uncover, another gamble to take - and this time, the stakes feel even higher. *** Crudêl dives into the life of Azalea Monet, a young woman determined to follow in the footsteps of her late father. But before she can become a renowned prosecutor, she has to survive the hardships of Harvard Law. It's not exactly smooth sailing. While stumbling through her studies, Azalea takes on a mystery no one else dared to touch for years - an old, forgotten case buried under years of dust and indifference. Will she crack the truth wide open? And if she does, will it be worth it? Along the way, Azalea faces challenges that could either break her or turn her into the strongest version of herself.
