The Wrong Target (18+)

"They threw you away, Elara. But I didn't pull the trigger. I kept you."

Elara Hayes is a nobody. An exhausted, underpaid assistant who made the fatal mistake of wearing her billionaire boss's crimson cashmere coat on a cold November night.

That coat got her abducted by a ghost-a lethal, professional hitman named Silas who doesn't make mistakes, and certainly never leaves loose ends.

Expecting a bullet to the head, Elara prepares to die in a windowless basement. Instead, Silas lowers his gun. Driven by a dark, feral possessiveness he can't explain, the cold-blooded killer refuses to throw away what the rest of the world discarded. He moves her from a concrete cell to his heavily fortified compound in the woods, locking her away in his golden cage.
Silas sets the terrifying terms of her new existence:
Rule 1: Do not run.
Rule 2: Do not lie.
Rule 3: Never oppose him.

Elara knows she should be terrified of the man with blood on his hands and a closet full of ransom money. But as the lines between captive and caretaker begin to dangerously blur, she discovers the monster in the dark is hiding a shattered heart.

And the most dangerous thing about Silas isn't that he kidnapped her-it's the terrifying, intoxicating realization that he's making her want to stay.
