I have nine names. None of them are allowed to fall in love.
It's the only rule that's kept me breathing in this neon-drowned city: never be the same person twice, never let anyone close enough to pull the thread.
Then a motorcycle-club prospect hires me to be his girlfriend for one night. One lie, to fool the matriarch who won't make him family.
I name a price meant to insult him. He doesn't blink.
One night becomes a few more. A card game with no rules. A man who catches every lie I tell and lets me keep them anyway.
I keep saying it isn't real. I keep saying I'll be gone by morning.
But something faceless is hunting the one thread I thought I'd cut forever — and the only way to save him may be to let him see the woman under all nine.
How do you disappear from the one person who finally found you?
