Someone's been watching her for twelve years. Now they're done waiting.

Roxy Stone built a pop empire on secrets—the biggest being that Roxy Stone doesn't exist. She's Rebecca Blake, a foster kid who clawed her way out of nothing and buried her past so deep she almost forgot it herself.

Until someone dug it up.

When her backup dancer turns up dead, Roxy realizes the stalker who's been haunting her for years isn't just obsessed—they know exactly who she used to be. And they want revenge for something she did when she was fourteen years old.

Enter Micah Vale. Ex-CIA sniper. Wicked Sanctuary's most controlled operative. The man who's been watching her for weeks, waiting for the threat he knew was coming.

Now he's her fake boyfriend, her bodyguard, and the only person standing between her and a killer who's been planning this moment for over a decade.

But Micah has rules. Don't get attached. Don't let them in. Don't repeat past mistakes.

Roxy breaks every single one.

Trapped together in his apartment, playing lovers for the cameras while hunting a ghost, they discover the conspiracy runs deeper than either imagined—and the man who built her career has plans far darker than she ever knew.

"Everyone who gets close to me ends up dead," she warns him.

"Good thing I'm hard to kill."

SHIELDED BY THE SHADOW is book 4 in the Wicked Sanctuary series but can be devoured as a complete standalone. This dark romantic suspense features a possessive alpha protector, a strong woman reclaiming her identity, sizzling dark romance with dom/sub dynamics, and a guaranteed HEA.
