Verdian’s world shatters the day tragedy strikes, leaving her caught between grief and guilt. But in the silence that follows, something begins to stir—an awakening that feels both strange and deeply familiar. Shadows whisper secrets she isn’t ready to face, and every step closer to the truth threatens to rewrite everything she believes about love, loss, and herself. As memories twist and hidden powers rise, Verdian must decide whether to face what’s been buried or let the past consume her completely. Sometimes, surviving isn’t the end—it’s the beginning of something far more powerful.

He suddenly lurches forward, grabs my arm, and pushes me up against the wall, one hand holding my wrists above my head. The other pushes my hips against the wall.

His lips are so close to mine that I feel his breath dance on my skin.

He lets go of me and pushes me into my room.

“Punishment starts tomorrow,” he growls.

Phoebe is not like the other people in her town. She isn’t afraid of the cursed Vengeance MC club president who lurks in the shadows.

Ophelia Bell

All we had to do was make it through the weekend. It should’ve been a breeze. A tattoo convention in Cancún with Toni Valentine, the toughest and sexiest tattoo artist in the world? It was a dream come true.

It was my chance to show her how I’d grown. I came to work for her when I was just some kid from LA and she already had a spread in Maxim and a successful video stream, but over the past three years, we’ve gotten close. And I had plans for us to get even closer.

But now my plans have changed. Now I’ve got to prove myself in a different way—by saving her from one of Mexico’s most brutal cartels.

I’d do anything for Toni, and that includes walking right into the belly of the beast. And I’m not coming back without her.
