Sometimes, it's scepticism which occupies the functioning part of our brains, but why is idiocy always to blame?
Ava Collins has always been moving from place to place due to the fear of the incident which caused her father's death. In the midst of recovery, a series of murders begins again in the 22 year- old's life. All it takes is witnessing a colleague's murder for Ava to become a main suspect and realize that, whoever lurked there 6 years ago, is back again with a new scheme.
Ava has to distance herself in order to protect those close to her. Anyone within her reach will be dead in a matter of seconds.
The question is... Why?

This suits her just fine, as Faya would rather hide in the weeds than attract any further attention. However, after her stepmother disappears, Faya finds herself further entangled in the world she hates. She knows the rules perfectly well and has now been saddled with the woman's debt, which the Hounds of Hell have been sent to collect. But what happens when one unsuspecting Polaris crashes through her impermeable façade? Invading her heart, the very place Faya sealed and bound tightly long ago?

A simple class system full of corruption, the police, and money runs her city. The only way out was money or to be bonded to someone with money. Being bonded, which was akin to soulmates, was A load of propaganda and rubbish to a girl just trying to finish high school and survive her less-than-high society father and his druggy friends. When unfortunate circumstances lead her to meet police officer Hayden and control freak CEO Caledon North, everything changes. Apparently, she had a soulmate or two, and apparently, the law dictated that she was stuck with them. This is her 'chance' to be more than another dirty girl on the street. Too bad she's an inconvenience and quite frankly, to them, not wanted. This is a mature, slow-burn romance with multiple lovers the main character doesn't have to choose between.
