"Not every legacy is chosen. Some are survived."
She grew up thinking she was just another kid in the system - too stubborn, too smart, and too angry for her own good. But Adriana Morales has always had questions about where she came from... and why danger seems to follow her like a shadow.
Between dodging foster homes, hacking into systems she shouldn't have access to, and occasionally crashing Miami PD's precinct with a sarcastic grin, Adriana has carved out her own kind of family - especially with Detectives Mike Lowrey and Marcus Burnett, who watch over her like uncles she never asked for.
But when a string of violent attacks shakes the city, Adriana finds herself tangled in something far bigger than she ever imagined. Secrets are surfacing. Blood ties are being tested. And the line between good and bad is starting to blur.
She doesn't know who she is yet...
But she's about to find out what she's made of.

Instead of the warmth of reunion, Mirabel faces suspicion, rejection, and a sinister game of power where trust is a luxury she cannot afford. In a world where loyalty is bought with blood and betrayal hides behind every smile, how far will Mirabel go to claim her place? And what secrets lie beneath the polished mask of her family's empire? Prepare to dive into a story of shattered identities, dark secrets, and survival against impossible odds. Mirabel's journey is just beginning-and in this world, the line between protector and enemy is dangerously thin. ______ {Sometimes I'd laugh to myself in the empty halls, the sound brittle and broken, because what kind of teenager thinks about dying more than they think about living? What kind of girl feels like her bones and her blood are her only companions? The kind of girl I had become}.
