After a butchered hostage operation, former detective Katarina Lago handed in her resignation and transferred to Whitegate Penitentiary, expecting her new life as a correctional officer to be smooth and simple...at least that's what she tells people.

Really, she's searching for the truth behind her father's death.

Incarcerated for two counts of murder, Ransom Drysdale didn't expect to be walking free for a few decades to come. That is, until an awfully convenient technical failure leads to his escape. Taking an officer hostage might not have seemed like his smartest decision at the time but when Lago reveals ulterior motives of her own, some common ground leads them to a romance for the ages.

The Kind Hearted by LisaBGreen

Ransom/OC (But you can be the OC I just prefer to see a name) Ranked #1 RandsomDrysdale (10/5/2023) I never wanted to be like my parents. They were blinded by money and did anything to get it, even launder it. Years after leaving my parents with not a phone call or a text to help them find me, I finally found my calling. Im a fifth grade teacher, living paycheck to paycheck, and good friends with Harlan Thrombey. When finding out what my parents did to get money, Ransom accused me of being just as dirty, basically saying I'm using Harlan to get money. Whenever he could, he would belittle me and say how I'm not welcome into his family and that I should stay away. Then I was attacked on my birthday, and he does everything he can to find out what happened, leaving he and Harlan to hire Benoit Blanc to solve my mystery. *Highest Rankings* #1 #RandsomDrysdale #1 #KnivesOut #35 #murdermystery
