Once he was her everything; now he is nothing but a lost memory.

NICK

I’ve spent years mourning the woman I love… until I found her alive, pointing a gun at my chest. She doesn’t remember me, us, or the time we spent together making promises we thought we'd keep. That was before they stole her from me. Now she’s a lethal stranger with scars on her body and ice in her veins, working for the very people who destroyed our lives. Every time I look at her, I see my Laura, but the woman fighting me and making me lose control is someone entirely new.
No matter what, I’ll burn the world down to bring her home and remind her exactly who she belongs to.

IVY

They told me I had no one. They gave me a new name, a new life, and a gun. Then he found me. Nick. The man who claims I used to love him. The man who won’t stop hunting me even after I put a bullet in his leg. He says I’m Laura, the girl from a family that supposedly mourned me. But I’m Ivy—an assassin who answers to no one. I should kill him. Instead, I’m letting him drag me across continents, cuff me to his bed, and unravel everything I thought I knew. His touch feels dangerously familiar. His eyes see straight through my armor. And the worst part? I’m starting to want the life he’s promising… even as the family that raised me puts a target on both our backs.
I don’t know who I am anymore. But I know one thing: I’m done being anyone’s pawn.

This is a standalone ending with a happily ever after!
