Marisa Adair thought she'd left chaos and heartbreak behind -- until Jonah, a friend from her wild years, resurfaces with a warning: "I've gotten myself in too deep." When Jonah is murdered, his haunting, cryptic last words become the first clue in a deadly game that risks exposing secrets Marisa is desperate to keep buried.

To solve the crime, Marisa must navigate a tangled web of allies and enemies. Russell, awkward yet charming, seems to know too much about her past. His warmth is disarming, but his curiosity cuts too close even as he keeps his own explosive secrets. Alex, her no-nonsense childhood friend turned chief financial officer, is as infuriatingly practical as ever -- and the chief pain in her -- neck. At the same time, their barbed exchanges spark unexpected feelings and desires. Both men challenge her resolve, pulling her in different directions as danger closes in and complicating her quest for justice.

Marisa's most unexpected ally is her Abyssinian cat. Laithe, with a big personality and even larger attitude, has his special part to play in the life-or-death investigation.

As Marisa delves into the glittering underbelly of her former life, the lines between past and present blur -- and so do her feelings for Russell and Alex. But trust is a luxury she can't afford. With a murderer closing in, Marisa must decide which ties to sever and which to hold tight. One wrong step could cost her everything -- including the new life she's fought so hard to build.
