Lisa has built empires on clean lines and sharper instincts—but when a ghost from the past steps out of the dark, her world fractures. Brothers go to war, secrets detonate, and a lover turns into a listening enemy. With Mary smiling like a confidante and moving like a chessmaster, Jacob haunting the edges, and Mike nursing a bruised heart, Lisa reaches for air on a Dumbo rooftop…and meets Ivan, a velvet-voiced temptation with danger stitched to his smile. One flirt becomes a fuse; one night becomes a target. By sunrise, gunfire has replaced music, and the line between power and passion, sex and love, is scorched. To survive, Lisa must decide which truth to keep—and which desire to kill.
