Marriage was supposed to be their shield. Now it’s their battlefield. Nova Travers finally thought she could exhale after saying “I do” to Crew Sanderson, a powerful, dangerous businessman who promised her safety, stability, and a new start for her and her daughter. Their vows weren’t just romantic; they were a strategy to keep the past at bay. But peace is fragile in Timberline, where power moves in the shadows and old debts never die quietly.
When Nova is violently taken, everything they built threatens to crumble. Crew’s empire, his polished public image, even his claim to being a changed man. He’s willing to torch it all to get her back. He calls in every favor, leverages every dark contact, and makes it clear to the city’s underworld.
Nobody takes what’s his and lives to tell it.
But rescuing Nova is just the beginning. Old enemies resurface with vendettas of their own. A network of dirty money, corrupt power brokers, and family secrets threaten everything Crew has fought to control. As alliances fracture and blood debts demand payment, Crew and Nova must face not only their enemies but the fear inside themselves. The terror of losing each other, the question of whether love can survive when survival itself isn’t guaranteed.
And all the while, there’s Timberly, their daughter, their promise of a future caught in the crosshairs of people who see her as leverage, a bargaining chip in a brutal game. To protect what’s theirs, Crew and Nova will have to stop being who they were and become the monsters their enemies fear. Because in this city, love isn’t soft. It isn’t gentle. It’s savage.
