Killer

He doesn't look at me, his jaw tightening as his hands flex at his sides. "No," he says flatly, his tone cold, unfamiliar.

My heart clenches painfully. It's a lie. It has to be.

Eight years ago, Isla Walsh's summer was consumed by one man-Giovanni Moretti. He was her brother's best friend, the forbidden flame she couldn't resist. They shared a fleeting, intoxicating love, and were destined to burn out too quickly. But when Giovanni vanished without a word, Isla was left alone to pick up the pieces of her heart.

Now a successful ER surgeon living in Manhattan, Isla has worked hard to rebuild her life, burying the pain and confusion of Giovanni's disappearance. But everything unravels when a dangerous underground fight pulls her into the shadows of her brother's secret world. Because the man stepping into the ring is none other than Giovanni-a ghost from her past who doesn't seem to recognize her at all.

In a world of lies, betrayal, and forgotten promises, Isla must decide if she's willing to risk everything for a love she can't forget-or if it's time to leave Giovanni in the past for good.
