Jillian learned the hard way that gold talks and mercy gets you killed. Left behind when her family was sold into slavery, she survived the streets with nothing but quick fists and even quicker lies. Now a bounty hunter cloaked in deception, Jillian lives disguised as a teenage boy to infiltrate the criminal underworld that destroyed her life. Headed by 3 ruthless bandits, the crime ring is brutal, untouchable, and sitting on more secrets than gold. Going undercover and extracting her target was supposed to be simple, but when one of the bandits discovers Jillian's secret, her safety is threatened, lies become tangled, and Lochlan's growing interest threatens to unravel everything she's fought to keep hidden. Jillian's mission demands blood, but her heart is begging her to remember she still has one. In a world where trust is a trap and vengeance is survival, love is a deadly weakness Jillian cannot afford.
