Caged- A JJ maybank love story
In the sun-soaked world of the Outer Banks, Alysia Thornton's life has always been tangled in the chaos of the Kook and Pogue divide-especially with her possessive brother, Topper, and her toxic, on-again, off-again relationship with the unpredictable Rafe Cameron. But when Alysia meets JJ Maybank, everything changes. What starts as a friendship between two people who have always lived in the shadows of others slowly blossoms into something deeper, something neither of them saw coming.
As the search for the treasure intensifies, Alysia's journey is no longer about finding buried gold-it's about rediscovering her worth and choosing the life she wants, free from the control of her past. But Rafe won't let her go that easily. Desperate to keep her under his thumb, he hatches a plan to drag her back into his dangerous world, while the rest of the Pogues race against time to stop him.
Now, torn between the man she thought she loved and the one who has always been there for her, Alysia must navigate the treacherous waters of family, loyalty, and love. As she and JJ fight for each other, Rafe's obsession pushes everyone to their limits, leading to a final showdown that could tear everything apart.
In a whirlwind of love, betrayal, and high-stakes adventure, Alysia must confront her past, her family, and her heart-and make a choice that could change the course of her future forever. Will she be able to escape Rafe's grip and find happiness with JJ, or will she be lost to the treasure hunt that has haunted her family for generations?
