To Kill a Man I Loved

A ghost was never supposed to love. Now she may have to kill the man she can’t let go.

In the neon ruins of Los Angeles, 2098, Mari is the kind of woman people whisper about—
a lethal, silent assassin known only as Ghost.
No attachments.
No hesitation.
No mistakes.

Until her newest contract: Phil Ryker, a gentle, unremarkable man who should’ve been just another target.

He isn’t.

There’s something different about him—something soft in a world built to crush softness.
And when Mari hesitates, Phil slips through her fingers…and straight into her life.

One night together turns into something neither of them should want.
And by morning, Mari’s worst fear becomes real:

PAYMENT RECEIVED. CONTRACT ACTIVE.

Phil must die.

But when he reveals the secret he’s been forced to forget—
his daughter Lena, hidden inside a protected dome—
Mari realizes she isn’t the only one Helix Corporation wants to erase.

Phil. His daughter. Even Mari herself.
They’re all pawns in a corporate experiment gone monstrous.

To save them, Mari must become the very thing she was trained to be:
a weapon sharper than any machine Helix can unleash.

To keep them alive, she’ll burn a city.
To protect the girl she’s grown to love, she’ll defy everything she is.
And to kill the man she loves…
she may have to kill the ghost Helix made her become.

Perfect for fans of dark romance, found family, cyberpunk worlds, and morally gray heroines who fall hard and fight harder.
If you love tension that simmers, danger that bites, and love that refuses to die,
To Kill a Man I Loved will break you beautifully.
