Private investigator Amara Blackwood has one rule: never take murder cases. She has enough ghosts haunting her already. But when the captivating Jace Kendrick walks through her door on a rain-slashed night, his offer proves impossible to refuse: help him expose a web of corruption surrounding the city's most powerful woman, Mayor Sterling.

The case should be straightforward. The chemistry between them shouldn't be this electric. And the deeper Amara digs, the more the evidence seems to twist like smoke through her fingers. Something about this investigation defies the natural order-something that awakens the very abilities she's spent years burying.

As assassination attempts mount and long-buried secrets surface, Amara must question everything: her resistance to her unique gifts, her growing feelings for Jace, and most disturbingly, the thin line between what is real and what only appears to be. In a case where nothing is quite as solid as it seems, even love might be an illusion-or the most real thing she's ever known.

19 parts Ongoing Mature
Hey everyone, if you're underage, I won't stop you, though I doubt you'll listen... but proceed at your own discretion. WARNING: This story is definitely not for kids. It may get steamy, intense, and *cough* extremely wild. The city sparkled below, lights twinkling like a thousand whispered secrets. From her penthouse, Amara Miller watched the world with practiced detachment. She was used to control, to predictability, to being the architect of her own life. And then he walked in. Ian Anderson. Sharp, deliberate, impossibly composed-and utterly infuriating. One glance, and the steady rhythm of her world fractured. She didn't know him. He didn't know her. Yet something about the pull between them was undeniable, a dangerous kind of curiosity that neither could resist. Sometimes, life didn't ask for permission. Sometimes, it demanded surrender. And for Amara Miller, surrender was the one thing she wasn't willing to give... yet. Join Amara and Ian on their exciting journey! WARNING: Mature content.
