Before the kill list. Before the blade. Before the red dress and the cartel and the man she wasn't supposed to want... There was a phone call from a barracks room in Germany, and a sister who answered on the third ring. Zoe Marin has spent eight years as a ghost. Military intelligence, no name, no home, no life outside the mission. Now she's out.

Mateo Reyes is the heir to an empire he's quietly ...

Camila Marin has three paintings to finish and six weeks to finish them. She has a gallery show, a sister coming home from overseas, and a noise in her head that never stops. Then a man at a bar names the noise. Nico Salazar knows how to give a woman what she needs. He also knows how to make sure she can't leave. Blessed Are the Broken is the story of what happened before the body. Before the burner phone. Before a soldier came home to an empty apartment and an unfinished painting on the easel and a sister who was already gone. This is Camila's story. She only gets to tell it once. A ...

They married me to a dead man. Now his brother wants to ruin me. The Vassallo manor is a gilded cage where widows are trophies and vows are written in blood.

First, she kept the tie clip. It was a souvenir from a man who smiled as he walked free.

To stop the pretender, Trinity has to become the predator they think she is. Bast wants to end it...
