Falling for a stranger is dangerous, but falling for your own executioner is a death sentence. Life begins to feel meaningful again for our protagonist when she meets the dark, magnetic Grayson—only for the fantasy to shatter when she discovers he isn’t a romantic interest, but a lethal assassin specifically sent to eliminate her. Now, she is living a nightmare as his prisoner. The tension is suffocating, fueled by the classic enemies-to-lovers trope where every brush of his skin is a torturous reminder that he has been ordered to end her life. Grayson lives by a cold, unwavering code, and someone is pulling the strings from the shadows, feeding him lies to ensure he completes his mission. Despite the blade held to her throat, she cannot ignore the undeniable chemistry simmering between them, leaving her to wonder if he is truly a heartless killer or a man being manipulated by a deeper, more sinister conspiracy. As secrets unravel and the truth behind her target status comes to light, she faces a harrowing reality. Caught in a deadly game of cat and mouse, she must uncover the identity of her enemy before it is too late. Will the man who ignited her soul be the one to extinguish it?
