When the wild twin goes missing, the quiet one becomes dangerous.
Lena Vale was always the dependable one, the responsible one, the one who stayed home while her sister chased the spotlight. But when a single night out turns into a nightmare and her twin vanishes without a trace, Lena is forced to step out of the shadows and into a world she never knew existed.
The police say to wait. Her gut says to run.
Tracking whispers through a city ruled by velvet-suited criminals and golden lies, Lena discovers a brutal underworld where women disappear, and silence is currency. To find her sister, she'll have to face danger, deception... and the mysterious heir to a crime empire who may be her greatest threat-or her only ally.
Loyalty is tested. Lines blur. And the quiet one? She might be the most dangerous of them all.

And when dark forces start to rise, she'll have to decide whether to keep running... or embrace the destiny she was never prepared for.
The Silent Hours
When he vanished, the silence told her everything. Keyvontae "KP" Powell was the kind of person who never just disappeared-until one night, he did. No note. No calls. No trace. For Kiara Clark, the search begins in desperation and spirals into obsession. Every unanswered question drags her deeper into Rosecreek's tangled web of secrets-where friends lie, family hides the truth, and even the people she loves most can't be trusted. With only one ally-a determined detective who's just as much an outsider-Kiara must face the possibility that the person behind KP's disappearance is someone she's known her entire life. In The Silent Hours, every whisper matters, every glance is a clue, and the quiet is far more dangerous than the noise.Complete
