PineapplePen1989
When her mother died under mysterious circumstances, Jaymie Rodriguez spent years drowned in questions no one dared to answer. The case was closed. The truth was buried. And everyone expected her to move on.
But Jaymie can't-not until she finds the man responsible.
Her search leads her to Julius Guerrero-cold, quiet, and dangerously unreadable. A man with scars he refuses to explain and a past he keeps locked behind steel walls. Everything about him screams stay away.
Everything in her heart whispers come closer.
The closer she gets to Julius, the more her world twists:
shattered timelines, hidden motives, and lies disguised as memories.
Because the man she's falling for...
might be the same man who tore her family apart.
But what happens when the truth isn't black or white?
When guilt is mixed with sacrifice-
and love becomes the most dangerous crime of all?
A forbidden love.
A buried secret.
A truth that could destroy them both.
