Valeria Cruz is more than an assassin-she's a work of art in motion. With a curvy yet athletic build, she moves with an elegance that belies her deadly nature. Her signature weapons, a sleek katana and a small, razor-sharp knife, are an extension of her-swift, precise, and silent. Beneath her cold exterior lies a hidden softness, a tender heart that only emerges for children and animals, the only remnants of her lost innocence.
Adrian Vega is her perfect foil. A suave, cunning spy armed with his trusty firearm and unshakable charm, he thrives on strategy and manipulation. His piercing blue eyes miss nothing, and his disarming wit makes him as dangerous as the bullets he fires. When their paths cross during a high-stakes mission, Adrian discovers that Valeria isn't just an opponent-she's his equal in every way.
Their clash is explosive, a game of wits and weapons that turns into a forbidden romance. But when Adrian's loyalty to his agency drives him to betray her, Valeria disappears into the shadows, leaving him with nothing but regret.
Months later, an enemy more dangerous than either of them forces the assassin and the spy to reunite. The tension between them crackles like a live wire as old wounds reopen and unresolved feelings resurface. With her blade and his gun, they must navigate a world of lies and betrayal to survive.
In a world where trust is a luxury and love is a weakness, can an assassin and a spy find a way to protect each other-or will their past destroy them both?
