Tell Them This When I Die by tarishannon18

This city is a mess. First of all, the police are hilariously unsuccessful in arresting a highly criminal nightclub owner. The media are ensuring everyone knows, resulting in city-wide romanization of crime. Second of all, the city's star detective is currently struggling to understand why that nightclub owner- a certifiable genius with a record-breaking intelligence score- chose the criminal lifestyle over, say, being a NASA engineer. And that brilliant criminal's boyfriend is equally confused over why she consistently takes unnecessary risks. This spiderweb of crime has been spun so far that even that detective's ex-fiancé, a bumbling idiot who also has custody over his daughter, is getting involved. So is that bartender who works for that criminal, and so is that detective's boss. And while all that happens, another criminal- most definitely not a certifiable genius- is ready to rip the spiderweb apart. In truth, it doesn't matter what they say about you while you're still here. It matters what they say about you long after you're gone. ** Rated mature for graphic depictions of drugs, violence and sex. Stunning cover by deathinreverie

But the switchblade she always keeps on her is a reminder of what she and those searching for her are capable of. So she has her one rule: don't get too close to anyone, no matter how bad she wants to. But when Daemon Kade sneaks into her life without an explanation to who he is, the two opposites can't help but attract, even if she hates his bossy demeanour and how attached he is to his gun. She knows he's dangerous, and he is definitely hiding things from her, but she can't help but fall deeper with the guy with a cold heart and even colder eyes. But when his secret comes out, all that's left is betrayal and heartache. t r o p e s : grumpy/sunshine, frenemies-to-lovers, banter, secret identity, mafia fiction, smut, no strings attached

And the mysterious world is just about to get more mysterious. Without warning, the human race suddenly faces extinction when an inexplicable affliction takes the life of anyone who falls asleep (you sleep, you die). With the clock ticking, Tiana and Ben fight to reunite, desperate to seize as much life and love as time will allow. But these two are about to face an even bigger existential challenge. If love conquers all, it has one hell of a fight on its hands.
