I’ve been a ghost for three years.
No friends. No life. A sister who vanished while I was in college.
And the code I taught myself to find her.
Then Lorenzo Santoro kicks in my door looking for a dangerous hacker.
Instead of killing me, he offers a deal. His resources for my intel on the ring that took Sofia.
So I move into the Santoro compound.
He doesn’t talk. But he notices.
Coffee while I’m working, made the way I take it. Food when I forget to eat.
His eyes on me when he thinks I’m not looking.
When he says my name, his voice drops low and rough, like a man who’s forgotten he’s allowed to want.
I wasn’t expecting his scarred hands pinning my wrists to his desk.
His mouth hot against my neck. My own voice gasping his name like a confession I can’t take back.
But when I discover who sold Sofia, everything shatters.
And he’s the one on his knees holding me together.
