She's a Michelin-starred chef hiding from killers. He's a cannabis kingpin who needs a miracle.
Celeste Dubois fled New York with nothing but fake papers and deadly secrets after witnessing her cartel-connected ex-boyfriend murder three federal agents. Now she's "Claire Moreau," desperate enough to take any job that keeps her invisible.
Rafael Reyes built his family's cannabis empire on perfection, but his head chef just quit three weeks before their most important product launch. When a mysterious woman with no references creates the most extraordinary dish he's ever tasted, he'll risk everything to keep her.
But Celeste's past is closing in.
Professional killers with international resources are hunting her across the country. Rafael's powerful family has enemies who'd love inside access to their operations. And falling in love with a man whose protection means war with the Sinaloa cartel might be the most dangerous thing she's ever done.
As bodies pile up and Marcus Volkov's obsession turns deadly, Rafael faces an impossible choice: let the woman he loves disappear forever, or fight for her with everything his family has built.
Some secrets are worth killing for. Some love is worth dying for.
But when cartel vengeance meets Reyes family loyalty, will their passion survive the kind of international manhunt that turns Michelin-starred chefs into ghosts?
Can two people build a future when the past refuses to stay buried?
